How to open a finished program directly?

I don't know how to put this really, but I finished a program in Qt, and i want to know how to make a .exe file for it, so i dont have to open Qt and build the program every time i use it. Thanks for anything?
In order for a program to execute, it has to put in executable format first. Whenever you build, it creates an executable.
Oh, well, I knew that, well, the first part. I didn't know building it did that. How do I make like, a shortcut to the built version, so I don't have to open Qt every time I want to use it?
