Normally on Windows you should install the Windows binary from the
*.zip file, not the source from the *.tar.gz file.
If you look at a CRAN page the available files are labeled that way.
You might also be interested in
?install.packages
There are further instructions available on your local CRAN mirror, including:
Installation of Packages
Please type help("INSTALL") or help("install.packages") in R for
information on how to install packages from this repository. The
manual R Installation and Administration (also contained in the R base
sources) explains the process in detail.
