Yesterday I reinstalled Windows 10 on my PC and downloaded and installed the current version of MongoDB Enterprise from the MongoDB website. After installing MongoDB, it works fine. But the mongodump.exe and mongorestore.exe files are missing in the C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\4.4\bin directory. So, I cannot restore my previous database and continue my work. Am I doing anything wrong? How can I get those files back so that I can restore my previous database?

Starting with Mongo 4.4 the database tools are not part of the MongoDB Server package anymore.
You have to download MongoDB Database Tools separately from https://www.mongodb.com/try/download/database-tools

Thank you. I thought I was doing something wrong. Didn't know that the Database Tools were separated. – John Wink Apr 02 '21 at 15:16
