Check the folder of your project, for C# I believe it will be inside a bin folder inside the project's folder, and then you go into debug/release folder according to your build(You can check that at the top of your window in VS, next to the run button.
Simply put, you don't need to do anything extra to make your project into an .exe, every time you compile and run your code from VS, an .exe is created at the folder I specified, VS just runs it for you so you don't have to navigate there every time.

That depends on the content of your project.
Mainly, you'll need to move all the .dll files you used along with the .exe.
Also, in alot of cases, you'll want to pack Microsoft's Visual Studio Redistributable Package for PCs that don't have them.
