The fix does not work due to a bug in SecurityElement.FromString.

To reproduce, compile and run the following code snippet:

using System;
using Microsoft.Win32;

class Program
{
  static void Main ()
  {
    try {
      using (RegistryKey createdKey = Registry.CurrentUser.CreateSubKey
("bug322839")) {
        createdKey.SetValue ("Path", "/usr/lib/whatever");
        createdKey.SetValue ("Info", "<Great\"News\">!");
      }

      using (RegistryKey openedKey = Registry.CurrentUser.OpenSubKey
("bug322839")) {
        string path = openedKey.GetValue ("Path") as string;
        Console.WriteLine ("PATH=" + path);
        string info = openedKey.GetValue ("Info") as string;
        Console.WriteLine ("INFO=" + info);
      }
    } finally {
      Registry.CurrentUser.DeleteSubKeyTree ("bug322839");
    }
  }
}

Expected result:

PATH=/usr/lib/whatever
INFO=<Great"News">!

Actual result:
