I have a very large script which contains a lot of php files, so I need some Windows tool to convert all those files into UTF-8 without BOM. (I know this can be done with Notepad++ but would require doing each file separately.)

You can get a tool such as iconv from GnuWin32 and run a batch script to process all of your files that way.
But what encoding are they now? If they’re ANSI, and you’re not using any bytes with values => 128, then they’re already BOM-less UTF-8. Perhaps you can use that to narrow down the number of files you’d have to process – maybe enough that you only have a few files to convert (and might prefer to do it on an individual basis).
