Is the issue that you're trying to click a deeplink (eg. a link starting with neo4j-desktop://), but it's not opening Neo4j Desktop?

If that is the case, the issue is that AppImages don't have a desktop integration. In other words, when you download the Linux version of Neo4j Desktop, you're downloading just an executable and you're not "installing it" in your system. Which means, you don't get an icon for Neo4j Desktop in your application menu and the application can't register itself to handle deeplinks.

What you can do to get around this is to use something like AppImageLauncher to install the AppImage. Or if you're using Arch Linux you can install the aur/neo4j-desktop unofficial package.
