I am here for your rescue.
There are plenty of method to fix this issue but I will tell you two method in this post
Method 1

Step 3: Even after installing it is not working then press window key + R and type services.msc
Step 4: Find the mongo and the restart that
This step will fix your problem
Method 2
Instead of installing mongo db if you alread have docker then u can use docker for this purpose
Step 1: In your code create dockercompose.yml file
Step 2: Paste the following code .
version: "3"
services:
mongo:
image: mongo
expose:
- 27017
ports:
- "27017:27017"
Breakdown of code
a.Version means the specific version of docker
b.Services means containers that should run together in same environment in this cose it is only mongo
c.Image: Specifies the Docker image to use for this container.Here, it's set to mongo, which means Docker will pull the official MongoDB image from Docker Hub if it's not already present locally.
d.Expose and port make it accessible outside docker container
Step 3: Boom thats it you now have working mongodb compass
