 Description   

Need to note that mongod.cfg need to be saved in ANSI encoding. I performed all the steps and got an error "error command line: unknown option XXX" when tried to install mongod as a service.
The problem was that I used Powershell, which saves output in Unicode. Re-saving mongod.cfg file in ANSI solved the problem
