Please have a look at logs and is there any problem indication over there.Logs folder is in $HOME.Neo4jDesktop\neo4jDatabases\database-$id\installation-$version\logs on your windows environment.

In logs I've found the problem,  
It was something really stupid, searching neo4j at incorrect hd.

I have the same case.  
To check the error you check log files "C:\User\name.Neo4jDesktop". if the problem does not solve try to re-install it.  
I uninstalling and In 'C:\Users\name' there is the file name of '.Neo4jDesktop' also delete that file.  
.Neo4jDesktop is stored previous information about installing.  
when you try to reinstall it use them and show the same error.

Try to delete all the folders named NEO4J desktop and reinstalled it. Stay collected to the internet and Allow access to all users during installation.
