    Description

      By design, the Windows MSI installer only supports having one version of the same product installed (SERVER-14603, SERVER-16614). This should be noted in the Windows install documentation for both Community and Enterprise editions.

      Multiple versions of MongoDB can be installed using the zipped binary downloads with distinct configuration files. See instructions for manually creating a Windows service for MongoDB.
