I think the double backslashes are just the escaped version of the backslash. Use the escaped form if you are going down the route of using the .reg file. If you are entering these keys directly, use the single backslash form.

I entered the path with the single backslash form and the escaped form was written out when I exported the keys using RegEdit.

Same thing with the quotes. RegEdit escaped the pair around the %L that I had entered directly. Those quotes are necessary to account for possible spaces in the path to the music files.

I notice the double slashes and the double end quotes, is it necessary
even for local paths?

e.g. my slimserver is located at:
C:\Program Files\Slim\Server\scanner.exe

Do I enter the following?

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Folder\shell\SlimScan\Command]
@="C:\\Program Files\\slim\\server\\scanner.exe --rescan \"%L\""
