Is the "without Cream" version the Self-installing

Both Windows installers on the Cream download page
http://cream.sourceforge.net/download.html
are self-installing versions of gVim. Cream is simply a runtime
configuration that requires a "regular" installation alongside. Even
if you get the wrong installer, default gVim will be available, and
you can't use Cream unless you select it's Start Menu/Desktop icon.
The only advantage to the non-Cream installer is it's console vim.exe
and related batch files. (Perhaps I should include these in the Cream
version so there's never a problem. Would it be too disturbing for
non-Cream users to have it on disk?)
Are you suggesting that there be just one installer to replace the
current Cream and non-Cream installers? If so, what would the
Windows Explorer context menu contain? I would think that Cream
users would want to be able to select only gvim with Cream
and that non-Cream users would want to be able to select only
gvim without Cream.

Well, what about:
[x] Install vim.exe (Vim for use in the dos-box)
[x] Install gvim.exe (the Vim GUI)
(select at least one)
[x] Also install Cream
[x] Set up a _vimrc if I don't yet have one
[x] Set up .bat scripts to help starting Vim
Install Vim in: [ C:\Program Files ] \Vim\vim72
or something similar?
Best regards,
Tony.
