That's just what it looks like in the reg file as the whole value is 
represented as a quoted string. Therefore, in the reg file, each \ and " 
(in the value) will be escaped with \.

For example, if you have a value with quotes and a backslash like this:

"C:\Test"

, in the reg file, a string that represents it might look like:

"\"C:\\Test\""

When you manually enter the value into the registry, you would type:

"C:\Test"
