Problem to install APOC apoc-5.1.0-core.jar in Neo4j Desktop v 1.5.2

First, I tried to install APOC in Neo4j Desktop by dropping jar file to "Install" field of GraphApps but it is failed with error msg: "[2022-11-04 09:35:46.838] [error] Graph app installation failed Error: Refusing to create a directory outside the output path.
at C:\Users\IgorY\AppData\Local\Programs\Neo4j Desktop\resources\app.asar\node_modules\decompress\index.js:30:12

at async addGraphAppPromise (C:\Users\IgorY\AppData\Local\Programs\Neo4j Desktop\resources\app.asar\dist\main.prod.js:3485:32)"

----

Then I tried to drop jar file to  "plugins" folder of "ralate-data/dbms/..." but the databases is failing in startup stage. 

 The installation process of APOC on website https://neo4j.com/labs/apoc/5/installation/ is not correct because there is not the folder $NEO4J_HOME/plugins in Neo4j Desktop installation. 

Any help how to install manually APOC in  Neo4j Desktop is appreciated. 

Thanks.
