So I have both the community server and the desktop app installed. The community server is installed (unzipped) in:
'C:\DevTools\neo4j-community-5.5.0';
And the desktop app is installed in the default folder and has the internal DBs in the default path too:
'C:\Users\xxx.Neo4jDesktop\relate-data\dbmss\xxxxxxxx'
When I try to start any DB via the desktop app, it always starts the community server rather than its built-in DB. It is clear via the log:
Directories in use:

config: C:\DevTools\neo4j-community-5.5.0\conf

licenses: C:\DevTools\neo4j-community-5.5.0\licenses
run: C:\DevTools\neo4j-community-5.5.0\run
Starting Neo4j.
When I try to create and start a new DB, while the new DB is indeed created in the default path (i.e. '.Neo4jDesktop\relate-data\dbmss\xxxxxxxx'), it actually starts the same (old) one in the community server.
I tried to delete/uninstall both the server and the desktop app, and reinstall desktop app, but it didn't work. In fact, the desktop app cannot start any DB until I reinstall the community server to the old directory.
Does anyone know what causes this problem, and how do I fix it?
