Use the escape character:

string commando = "OSQL -Usa -Psa -n -Q \"BACKUP DATABASE Rendas TO DISK =
'c:\\Rendas.dat_bak'\"";

or prefix with @ character:

string comando = @"OSQL -Usa -Psa -n -Q "BACKUP DATABASE Rendas TO DISK =
'c:\Rendas.dat_bal'"";

Prefixing with the @ would mean you'd need to double up on the quotes...

string comando = @"OSQL -Usa -Psa -n -Q ""BACKUP DATABASE Rendas TO DISK =
'c:\Rendas.dat_bal'""";

or prefix with @ character:

string comando = @"OSQL -Usa -Psa -n -Q "BACKUP DATABASE Rendas TO DISK =
'c:\Rendas.dat_bal'"";

No, @ means ignore escape characters, meaning \ is treated as a regular character.

Escape embedded " (double-quote) characters using '\'.

string comando = "OSQL -Usa -Psa -n -Q \"BACKUP DATABASE Rendas TO DISK =
'c:\Rendas.dat_bak'\"";
