I'm running on a Linux system, so I have Mercurial without any Tortoises. 
 I might try on my laptop, but it has both THG and a non-THG Windows 
version of Mercurial, so that might not be conclusive.  The latter is 
available from the main Mercurial site, 
<http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/HackableMercurial>
 which is only up to 2.6.
There are a couple of better known downloads for Windows installers for 
2.7.2, but I haven't tried them.

It is, of course, a bit of pain for the THG you already have not to be 
recognized.  There might be some path settings involved, since THG does 
make the command line tools available.
