I know there is a project libbitcoin-qt.vcxproj, but I have issues with building it. Is there another solution how to build bitcoin-qt.exe (only VS)?
building bitcoin-qt.exe using Visual Studio 2017

There is documentation about how to build with visual studio on this link. It works fine for me.

Independently of how you go about doing this, building with VS is not a recommended or supported configuration (beyond testing reasons). If you run a system built that way you lose the advantage of the enormous amount of testing put in by users and developers on the supported builds.
At a minimum you should make sure that all the functional tests pass on your build, though this is generally good advice for any build.
I've built all of the executables except bitcoin-qt.exe following this instruction. Please tell how have you built this exe. – Ilya Maximencko – 2018-10-09T14:05:17.293
"Solution and project files to build the Bitcoin Core applications (except Qt dependent ones) with Visual Studio 2017 can be found in the build_msvc directory." Does it mean that I can't build bitcoin-qt.exe with VS? If yes, then why do we need libbitcoin-qt.vcxproj file in build_msvc? – Ilya Maximencko – 2018-10-09T14:20:04.973
