without doing the procedure above) but in some cases (e.g. Note that as of version 2.0.0 LyX is capable of displaying SVGs without configuring Inkscape as converter (i.e. If they're not there, check the path you entered and ensure that you have matched the case perfectly, and that the target directory exists, and that inkscape.exe is there.
You do NOT have to add the converters yourself they will be automatically added when LyX detects Inkscape on the path during a reconfigure operation. Once you have them, everything should work fine. If you open up the Converters preference again, you should see new entries there for SVG to PNG, SVG to EPS, and SVG to PDF. To enable the default support on Windows, edit preferences and add the path to Inkscape to the paths section (it appears that the path entry may be case sensitive, so use the correct letter casing on the path, even on Windows).
