https://www.wireguard.com/install/ is the wireguard installer for windows. I'm not sure where it stores its configuration files on windows, but I'm sure that's documented on their website somewhere. Then you can configure it according to this wiki article https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/WireGuard (yes it's for Linux, but wireguard works basically the same whether on Windows or Linux)
