For no good reason that anyone on this list has been able to fathom, the .exe doesn't contain the batch files; the .zip download does.
To get this running, I suggest you: 1) Download the .zip version of 6.0.20; 2) Unzip it somewhere safe; 3) Copy the missing .bat files to your second installation; 4) Carry on with what you were doing now that you have the files. If you later want to install the second instance as a second service, you can do that - but I'd get it running standalone first. It's far easier to debug startup errors on a standalone Tomcat, in my experience. - Peter
