If you build the project in release mode and then look in the projects bin folder you will see a release folder. Your exe will be in here after building. Your exe file should run on your friends computer if they are running windows and have the .NET Framework installed.

simple answer is: right click on the project in solution explorer (top right hand side window) and click 'build', then look for the exe file in ./bin/debug
