no problem at first sight with windows compilation. the usual instructions are ok.
Code:
git clone https://github.com/aeonix/aeon.git aeon-0.9.13.0
cd aeon-0.9.13.0
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -G "Visual Studio 14 2015 Win64" -DBOOST_ROOT=c:/local/boost_1_64_0 ..
msbuild Project.sln /p:Configuration=Release /m
tested with: gitshell, boost 1.64 static, python 3.5, cmake 3.8.0, microsoft visual studio 2015 rtm

Daberti's guide is still relevant and useful : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=641696.msg18754693#msg18754693

Still here I’m 😊👌🏻

Thanks for this information.
But I have two problems. After the win64 exe files were generated, the v0.9.13.0 aeond.exe cannot open the block chain data synced by v0.9.12.0, and the v0.9.13.0 simplewallet.exe cannot open the old wallet. How can I transfer the money out ?

By the way, I have tried to transfer aeons from v0.9.12.0 wallet to hitbtc exchange, but the hash cannot be found in minergate blockchain info. What's happened?

when aeond.exe is unable to open a previous blockchain, it's usually correlated to difference between boost version.
0.9.12.0 official win64 binaries are using boost 1.63. i used boost 1.64 to compile 0.9.13.0 and all was fine. aeond 0.9.13.0 read successfully the 0.9.12.0 blockchain.
check your boost version.

and to recover your old wallet, delete the name_of_your_wallet file (it's a cache of your wallet history) and keep the name_of_your_wallet.keys file, simplewallet will regenerate your wallet history from scratch.
warning: the .keys file is the most important file, without it you lost your wallet!
