Set either ORACLE_SID or LOCAL to your "default" SID in either Windows environment variables or registry.

The general difference between ORACLE_SID and LOCAL is that, with ORACLE_SID you can specify only instances in local server, but with LOCAL you can set any TNS alias (the same as TWO_TASK in Unix)
