As specified above once you try with

USING PERIODIC COMMIT
LOAD CSV WITH HEADERS FROM "file:///E:/AdventureWorks/adventureworks-neo4j/data/products.csv" as row
CREATE (:Product {productName: row.ProductName, productNumber: row.ProductNumber, productId: row.ProductID, modelName: row.ProductModelName, standardCost: row.StandardCost, listPrice: row.ListPrice});

The "URI is not hierarchical" error disappears. Then most probably you will get an error saying that it couldnt load the resource like

TransientError.Statement.ExternalResourceFailure

In order to solve the same you should find the neo4j.conf file.

Since i'm using a windows 10 machine and community edition of neo4j i could find the same in the below path.

C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Roaming\Neo4j Community Edition

Edit the conf file and comment out the line

dbms.directories.import=import

Doing the above steps enabled me to load the csv file.
