In Case this is useful to others, here is the Windows batch file I use to
convert a large number of .ly files.  Change LY_HOME to your taste:

---Start
@echo off

set LY_HOME=C:\Program Files (x86)\LilyPond-latest\usr

for %%f in (%*) do (
    echo Converting %%~nf...
if exist %%~nf.orig (
del %%~nf.orig
)
move %%f %%~nf.orig
"%LY_HOME%\bin\python.exe" "%LY_HOME%\bin\convert-ly.py" %%~nf.orig > %%f
)
---END

And if you need to restore all the .orig files:

---Start
@echo off

for %%f in (%*) do (
echo Restoring %%~nf...
del /Q %%~nf.ly
move %%f %%~nf.ly
)
---END
