My aim is this URL: 

component/users/?view=registration

To:

registration.html

the .htaccess is in the folder mysite of the website.

i tried this:

RewriteBase /mysite
RewriteRule ^component/users/?view=registration$ registration.html$ [R=301,L]

But i doesnt work...

When i try this:

RewriteRule ^component/users/_view=registration$ registration.html$ [R=301,L]

it works very well.

So how can i fix this problem with the question mark. I already read thats it is not a part of the URL (its appended). I have read that i have to use something like querystring, but i didn't really understand the syntax.

Maybe someone could write the solution of this problem? Would be awesome =)

You need to use %{QUERY_STRING} to capture the query string data:

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^view=(.*)$
RewriteRule ^component/users/?$ %1.html? [R=301,L]

The above rule/condition will take the value of the query string view and use it to form your redirect if the path component/users matches.

RewriteRule ^component/users/\?view=registration$ registration.html$ [R=301,L]

You need a \ because ? is part of a regular expression. To Use it as a string u need to escape it with a \
