Using the stack tool (easiest, recommended):

Install stack (on Windows, you should choose the 64-bit stack download if you will be processing >50,000 transactions at a time with hledger, cf #275).
stack setup (if you need GHC installed. If you're not sure, run the next command and it will tell you.)
stack install hledger (the command-line UI), or
stack install hledger-ui (the terminal UI; not available on Windows; includes the above), or
stack install hledger-web (the web UI; includes the above)
stack will report where it installed the binaries (~/.local/bin or the Windows equivalent). You should ensure this directory is in your $PATH (stack will let you know), so that you can just type hledger to run it.

Without stack, the process is much more variable; this is most likely to work:
