Reading the w32client2010 script would help ... I had to do it myself ;-)
And the same with the tlmgr man page
Adding the binary dir to the sarch path
tlmgr path add (with optional --w32mode=user or admin)
Adding the shortcuts for several programs
tlmgr postaction install shortcut dviout.win32 texworks texlive-en tlpsv.win32
(all with option --w32mode)
Adding file associations
tlmgr postaction install fileassoc dviout.win32 tlpsv.win32 texworks.win32
with options --w32mode, --fileassocmode
Run xetex postaction script:
tlmgr postaction install script xetex
(with optional ....)
That should get you going.
With the w32client2010 script you get in addition an entry in the
uninstall program section, and an additional shortcut with
TeX Live Prompt.
Reading the man page of tlmgr would give you also the options
tlmgr path add
tlmgr postaction install shortcut --all
tlmgr postaction install fileassoc --all
tlmgr postaction install script --all
which should do the same, more or less.
Best wishes

Close all that you have worked on.
You ask far too much.
