Mongo.exe file is missing in bin folder

Welcome to the MongoDB community @ketan_k !

Can you provide some more details on your environment:

• version of MongoDB server installed
• your O/S version

If you are installing MongoDB 6.0 or newer, the legacy mongo shell is no longer included. Depending on your O/S and install options you may have mongosh (the new MongoDB shell) and/or MongoDB Compass (an admin GUI including an embedded version of mongosh).

You can also Download MongoDB Tools from the MongoDB Download Centre if they are not already installed.

Same issue here, using VS Code and wants to connect to the mongo shell. Unable to find mongosh.exe in version 6.0. These are files I could find in the “bin” folder:

*PS C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\6.0\bin> ls*
*Directory: C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\6.0\bin*

*Mode                 LastWriteTime         Length Name*

Hi @DEEPAK_KUMAR12,

You can open the InstallCompass.ps1 PowerShell script to install MongoDB Compass (which includes an embedded version of mongosh, the new MongoDB Shell) or download the MongoDB Shell from the the MongoDB Download Center: https://www.mongodb.com/try/download/shell

@SAURAV_KUMAR The referenced issue is a similar problem (the legacy mongo shell is no longer included with MongoDB 6.0) for a different O/S environment. Per Install MongoDB Community Edition on Ubuntu, there is a mongodb-mongosh Ubuntu package for the new MongoDB shell.
