Yes, unzip.
You do not need to rename the file. croquet.exe. Just double click and then it looks for the image file and launches it.
But I think you cannot go back to squeak.exe after you have started and saved the image with croquet.exe. (Others please correct me)
Squeak images saved by the CogVM will have a new image format. The current release (4.1.1) of SqueakVM for windows can't read such images. I built a VM which can be used to convert your images back to the old formatl. It's available here: http://leves.web.elte.hu/squeak/SqueakVM-Win32-4.4.9-2358-non-official-bin.z...
Have these changes been folded back into VMMaker trunk?

Do you mean extract cogwin.zip into the Squeak-All-In-One folder and then rename croquet.exe to squeak.exe ?

To have Squeak with Cog I replaced the old Squeak VM with a Cog one from http://www.mirandabanda.org/files/Cog/VM/ (MSWindows)

I agree. Does this imply that two all-in-one packages are needed, a Cog and an non-cog?

Is the difference between a Cog and non-Cog VM just the a different exe (for windows)? How compatible are the images for Cog and non-Cog? Could two executables be included in a single All-In-One package - ie named like SqueakClassic.exe & SqueakCog.exe ?
