as noted in the other thread, you've stumbled over an omission in the docs.
Here is the manual recipe for benefit of the thread archives:
 Installing Leo on Windows

   1.

   Install Python from http://www.python.org/download/releases/
   2.

   Install either Tk or Qt, as described above.
   3.

   Install Leo. Get Leo’s .zip file from
   http://sourceforge.net/projects/leo/ You can unpack the .zip file
   anywhere, including Python’s *site-packages* folder, for example,
   C:\Python26\Lib\site-packages
   4.

   [optional] Generate/update a junction link from unpacked leo folder to
   ...\site-packages\leo:

   cd C:\Python26\Lib\site-packages\
   junction leo leo-4-6-2-final

    5.

   Create windows shortcut (edit paths as necessary):

   Target   =  C:\Python26\pythonw.exe
"C:\Python26\Lib\site-packages\leo\launchLeo.py"
   Start in =  D:\code

    6.

   Associate .leo filetype batch file:

   ftype LeoFile=C:\Python26\pythonw.exe
"C:\Python26\Lib\site-packages\leo\launchLeo.py" "%*"
   assoc .leo=LeoFile

    7.

   [optional] Put this leo.bat in %PATH%:

   @C:\Python26\python.exe "C:\Python26\Lib\site-packages\leo\launchLeo.py" %*
