Part of the upgrade from ebook-tweak (which "explodes" the ebook so you can edit the individual files) to ebook-edit (which incorporates a GUI with all kinds of nice features) is the ability to run it via the standalone program ebook-edit.exe located in the calibre installation folder.

Just set a file association so you can open .ePub and .azw3 with the program
Code:
C:\Program Files\Calibre2\ebook-edit.exe
And yes, you will still have to install the rest of calibre too. But you absolutely do not have to run ebook-edit from within the calibre library.
