1. Download MongoDB
2. Install MongoDB
3. Create the required folders:
"C:\MongoDB_2_6_Standard\bin\data\db"
"C:\MongoDB_2_6_Standard\logs"
"C:\MongoDB_2_6_Standard\etc"
NOTE: If the directories do not exist, mongod.exe will not start.
4. Create a simple configuration file:
systemLog:
destination: file
path: "C:\\MongoDB_2_6_Standard\\logs\\mongo.log"
logAppend: true
net:
bindIp: 127.0.0.1
port: 27017
(如果用记事本编辑总是报错，可是用notepad++打开后保存再保存。)
[注] mongo 3.2和mongo3.6有些不同, 3.2默认是开启远程连接的,3.6默认是不开启的,要用bindIp或者bindIpAll:true来进行设置.

5. Install MongoDB as a Windows Service (this way it will start automatically when you reboot your computer)
Run cmd with administrator privilegies, and enter the following commands:
"C:\MongoDB_2_6_Standard\bin\mongod.exe" --config "C:\MongoDB_2_6_Standard\etc\mongodb.conf" --dbpath "c:\MongoDB_2_6_Standard\bin\data\db" --directoryperdb --install
6. Start the MongoDB Windows Service
net start MongoDB
7. Connect to MongoDB via shell/cmd for testing
C:\MongoDB_2_6_Standard\bin\mongo.exe
NOTE: http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/getting-started-with-the-mongo-shell/
8. That's it! You are done. :)
9. Uninstall/remove the MongoDB Windows Service (if you messed up something)
"C:\MongoDB_2_6_Standard\bin\mongod.exe" --remove
