Hi Patrik:

Aparently its telling you that gtk isn’t installed properly. This  
should be installed with glade.

I would try uninstalling all versions of glade, and installing the  
version from [visualruby.net](http://visualruby.net). Also, I’d uninstall all versions of GTK  
from your computer. There are several different installs of GTK  
available.

See if you can get the glade program to run by typing :

C:\>glade-3

at the prompt. Check the version, It should be 3.6.7.

What version of windows are you running?

Does anyone else know the cause of this?

Yours,  
Eric

Hi:

I found this using google:

[http://gimp-win.sourceforge.net/faq.html](http://gimp-win.sourceforge.net/faq.html)

“I’m getting The procedure entry point libintl\_snprintf could not be  
located in the dynamic link library intl.dll. when I try to run GIMP or  
use plug-ins. How do I fix it?  
Some broken application (often one of HP’s logon enhancement programs)  
placed a file named intl.dll to your Windows or Windows\System32  
directory. Rename it, and GIMP will work fine. Report any problems this  
causes with other programs to makers of these programs - intl.dll has no  
place in System32 directory.”

"OK, for future help in case anyone has a similar issue, I found the  
stray intl.dll in c:\windows\sysWOW64\ "
