The Emacs project does not provide an installer for Emacs, on any
platform. We develop the source code for Emacs and provide generic
build procedures for producing binaries on supported systems. What
you are asking for might be the job of an installer, if the people who
produce binary distributions of Emacs for Windows consider that
worthwhile. (One downside of doing that is that installing a
different version of Emacs or uninstalling Emacs would then need to do
more cleanup than just remove its files.)
Alternatively, you could do this yourself. AFAIU, the description
here will help you do that:

There's no bug in Emacs here.
