Do you know what I can do ?
I don't really think you understand what you're asking at all. The mounts in the above registry keys are NORMAL and you DO NOT want to remove them or else your system will break. If you're asking about how to switch your mounts from SYSTEM to USER mounts then just rerun setup and choose "just me" instead of "all users." In your other email you mentioned some *other* keys which showed mounts from an ancient version of Cygwin. Those can be removed, but they are not hurting anything by being there as current Cygwin versions will ignore them, and it's clear you're not quite sure what you're doing so it's best not to mess with the registry directly.
