    Not sure what you mean by "boot". This version of Glade is very old and obsolete, but should simply install by running the installer in Windows 7 or XP. It does not run without Windows running first. It uses the GTK+ libraries which are compiled for Windows GDI. Without them, it won't run, so it can't be "booted" as such.

    Glade is a user interface composer tool. If you're asking if you can use the results of what you create with it as a replacement Windows Shell, the answer is theoretically yes. It does still require all the Windows API libraries to be included in your install since as I said, GTK+ on Windows is built against the Windows APIs. If you want to use Glade itself as a Windows Shell, you probably can, but it would be unwise. This version of Glade was somewhat fragile--it was not difficult to crash it.

      Thank you for the clarification.
