Don't do that. Remove `convert-ly.py` from your scripts file.

Well, I was all ready to spell out exactly what to do, but I ran into a
problem. When I typed this at the command line in Windows 11:
convert-ly.py the_ravens.ly
I received the follow message:
C:\Users\xxx\yyy\Documents\LilyPond>convert-ly.py the_raven.ly
Unable to create process using
'C:\home\lily\lilypond-2.24.4\release\binaries\dependencies\install\Python-3.10.8\bin\python3.10
"C:\Users\xxx\lilypond\lilypond-2.24.4\bin\convert-ly.py" the_raven.ly':
The system cannot find the file specified.
When I opened the file convert-ly.py I saw this as the first line:
#!/home/lily/lilypond-2.24.4/release/binaries/dependencies/install/Python-3.10.8/bin/python3.10
That isn't going to work on my system, so I deleted that line. Then
`convert-ly.py the_ravens.ly` worked fine. So the question to the
developers is, why is that first line in convert-ly.py, and should it be
removed?
