It's preferable if you don't manually edit the config file and you set
Inkscape with the GUI. Just click on TOOLS -> "Set configuration
parameter". Then enter "inkscape-exec" as the parameter to configure, then
enter "path/to/inkscape.exe" as the value.
For example, on my laptop Inkscape is installed in "C:\Program
Files\Inkscape\bin\inkscape.exe", therefore "C:\Program
Files\Inkscape\bin\inkscape.exe" is the value to insert. Don't forget to
restart the server and check on the Server log if the path has been
accepted. You should see some lines like:

2024-06-09 20:55:18 [I] Found configured Inkscape executable: C:\Program
Files\Inkscape\bin\inkscape.exe
2024-06-09 20:55:18 [I] Trying to execute "C:\Program
Files\Inkscape\bin\inkscape.exe --version" command...
2024-06-09 20:55:25 [I] Inkscape 1.3.2 (091e20e, 2023-11-25, custom)
2024-06-09 20:55:25 [I]
2024-06-09 20:55:25 [S] ...The command succeeded

I tried it on Windows too and it worked fine but let me know if you still
experience issues.

Why do you need this inside the Tools drop-down menu? It should be easier
and quicker to use the one provided by the menu in the SVG drawing (Shape
-> cpts). In any case, if you show me possible advantages in adding it in
the Tools menu, I can add it. Let me know...

HTH,
