I want to run MongoDB to save data into user AppData (on Windows).

mongod.exe --dbpath "C:/Users/%User%/AppData/Local/%MyFolder%"

But in my case %User% may contain Cyrillic. Thus mongod.exe does not start with an error

... [initandlisten] exception in initAndListen: 29 Data directory C:/Users/%User%/AppData/Local/%MyFolder% not found., terminating ...

While this folder exists.

How starting it with these options. Maybe someone knows a way to do it. – ZolotovPavel May 08 '15 at 15:31
Can you add an example of a `dbpath` that doesn't work (i.e. with `%USER%` and `%MyFolder%` placeholders expanded to their values with Cyrillic characters)? – Stennie May 10 '15 at 07:48
`mongod.exe --dbpath "C:/Users/Пользователь/AppData/Local/MyPrg"` – ZolotovPavel May 12 '15 at 12:31
