Hmmm. Looks like you installed the source code of the package, not the
binaries.
The file in ...\tensor\R should be called "tensor" (without the ".R").

Are you sure the file you got was called tensor.zip? If so, it was not
correctly created, I suppose. The recent versoin on CRAN is 1.1-2.
You didn't told us yours.

I think the recent version on CRAN is not corrupted and works for me.
Try reinstall the windows binaries of the package:
  install.packages("tensor")
