It will crack and break and maybe the heated gasses inside will make it explode.
In a situation where you are within a structure that is on fire and you cannot flee to a safer location, you would want to keep windows in the closed position. Opening windows will bring in an air flow in which the fire will flow towards. If there is not oxygen for a fire, it will help to decrease the fire because it is taking away a source of fuel.
Most houses had windows, but most houses did not have glass in the windows. Instead, the windows were open, and could be closed with a shutter. Many houses had window-like holes high in the walls to vent smoke from the fire on the hearth, because they had no chimney, and such vents were not closed for weather because they had to stay open for the fire. It was not what we would call cozy. Rich people, of course, had windows, and these often had glass in them.
No it does not catch fire, I have several glass sculptures on my windows, I'm assuming these are on the inside of the windows, unless your inside temp inside the home gets to the point of high heat, then it will or could melt. But no worries, they are very safe.
The fire feeds off of the oxygen so the fire gets bigger. That's one reason you are told to keep doors closed when there is a fire.
Depending on the materials of the walls, the fire can spread. If the walls are fireproof, the fire will die once it runs out of oxygen.

Helium hasn't an effect.
The answer is that a closed fire is best for heating a house.
Examples are the tungsten element inside a light bulb, and the heating element bars of an electric fire.
yes it does, that's why your always told to keep all doors closed when a fire is inside!
it was closed cause it was set on fire
