I have seen this already. but where can I find winencrpyt.dll after including winencrpyt.h?

You need to use wincrypt.h header and crypt32.lib library

When I include wincrypt.h, should I add crypt32.lib explicitly? because I'm getting link error. and how to add crypt32.lib in Qt project?

@NoorNawaz yes, you should all it explicitly. Check how to add external libraries at Qt projects here.
