I Guess the Above Two Solution Wont Help Much the Real solution to this problem Can Be Found From Adobe Website , Here is the solution , this problem Occurs Because The System account does not have full access rights to the.svg and .svgz registry keys.

The Solution is To Give the System account full access rights to the .svg and .svgz registry keys. This procedure involves editing the Windows registry. Adobe doesn't provide support for editing the registry, which contains critical system and application information. Make sure to back up the registry before editing it.

• Choose Start > Run.
• Type regedit in the Open box, and then click OK to start the Windows Registry Editor.
• Navigate to the following two registry keys:
  

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.svg
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\.svgz

• Right-click on each key and set the rights for the SYSTEM account to Full.
• Close regedit and install Illustrator.
