Why it can not work? Do plugins data wrong? Which one should I download? Thanks.

I **must** try apoc.load.csv instead of read csv with header from... to check whether the performance would be better !

Looks like you have the 'core' jar, but the apoc.load.csv method is in the 'extended' jar.

I got it to work for me by downloading the 'apoc-5.3.0-extended.jar' file from the git repo and adding it to the import directory and updating the apoc.conf file to enable importing. You need the other apoc jar that is installed by Neo4j desktop. Below is my import folder that worked.

You safe my life, thanks you. apoc.load.csv indeed faster than read csv with header from, just a bit little although.
