Follow the instructions provided in the build-*.md files here: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/tree/master/doc, depending on your OS. You don't need to have qt creator in order to build Bitcoin Core (bitcoind or bitcoin-qt).

Thanks
I compiled it but I cannot find the exe file
./autogen.sh # not required when building from tarball
CONFIG_SITE=$PWD/depends/i686-w64-mingw32/share/config.site ./configure --prefix=/
make

After I run the make on Ubuntu there is not an exe file,under src there is bitcoind bitcoin-cli
But how can I get the wallet with interface and run under Windows ?

Did you follow the documentation exactly (i.e. go into depends and build the dependencies)? Also, if you have built any part of Bitcoin Core before, you will need to use make clean before performing make.

The files will be src/bitcoind.exe, src/bitcoin-cli.exe, and src/qt/bitcoin-qt.exe (well a few others, but these three are the only ones that people actually care about).
