Looks like you have to ask it to install legacy option to get convert or maybe use option with magick.exe

From a forum post I found
Re: convert.exe missing from 7.0.1-Q16? Post by fmw42  2016-05-02T17:02:29-07:00  Imagemagick 7 uses the "magick" command in place of "convert". I do not know Windows, but I thought a binary install was supposed to make a symbolic link from convert to magick. But as I do not know Windows, I do not know how it handles the .exe.  Perhaps convert.exe is linked to magick.exe.  see http://imagemagick.org/script/porting.php#cli for the changes between IM 6 and IM 7 Fred's ImageMagick Scripts Top snibgo Posts: 12159 Joined: 2010-01-23T23:01:33-07:00 Authentication code: 1151 Location: England, UK Re: convert.exe missing from 7.0.1-Q16? Post by snibgo  2016-05-02T17:21:10-07:00  The IM 7 for Windows instllation process has a series of windows, including a load of checkboxes. About half way down one of these is wording something like "Install legacy components (convert.exe etc)". Tick this box.
