If you have LabVIEW professional or higher (or the application builder), you can create standalone executables. They only require installation of the free run-time engine on the target machine.
The comment about installing LabVIEW runtime is a bit misleading though, it is a rather large file. Much has been said negatively about this, versus Visual C, etc., but the trick with them is that MicroSoft installs the runtime for them when Windows is installed.
