That depends, for now they both work, I guess. The .exe has some extra functionality of tweaking the environment, that may be removed in the future. I'm not sure yet, because running the .bat file opens a console, which looks amateurish. > With lilypond.bat: why does it make sense, to put the result onto the > Desktop? I do not understand this question. AFAIK, the .bat file is needed to get the result onto the desktop at all. The new lilypond user will drag and drop a .ly file onto lilypond, and the result should be placed on the desktop, I guess. I tried setting the working directory to %USERPROFILE%\<locale's desktop folder name>, but the %USERPROFILE% does not get expanded in that box. In case lilypond is installed for all users, the result must not be written to the shared desktop (where the icon resides), because there is probably no write access there.
