Answer 1

Look carefully error, an error message is very clear that the causes and solutions for the problems, as long as we later in the installation MonogoDB command to add a parameter --storageEngine = mmapv1, will wiredTiger engine switched mmapv1 engine, you can successfully install.

So your complete command will be as follows:

mongod --dbpath MongoDb_Location_In_Your_HDD\data --storageEngine=mmapv1

Note: MongoDb_Location_In_Your_HDD means the location where you put your MongoDb e.g.- D:\mongodb
