Cause to this issue is you may not have permission to edit system registry or it is disabled by a script or Group policy. Try to manually open RegEdit and check the possibility.

To check Group Policy settings. Run Rsop.msc on the exchange server and see the below settings.

Remove any GP settings or script which prevent editing registry and re-install the server role.
