Why is convert-ly.py located inside your project directory? That is likely the source of your issues. My recommendation is delete your Lilypond 2.24 installation and revert any manually moved or copied libraries or scripts, then download Lilypond 2.24 again, extract it, and move the entire folder as-is to your preferred install location. For my Windows machine, I use C:\Program Files\Lilypond\ for all my Lilypond installations, and I rename each version from lilypond-2.25.20 (for example) to simply 2.25.20.
convert-ly should work fine when run from its default location within the Lilypond installation. If after reinstalling Lilypond you still get this type of issue, likely it is due to your PATH including only lilypond-2.24.4\bin. I would try changing that to the entire lilypond install directory, not just \bin. It's been mentioned in other replies that it's easier to run convert-ly from within Frescobaldi. For a while at least. convert-ly was broken when run from Frescobaldi on Windows. I'm not sure if that is still true.
