Hi @Wellington_Majora,

I have tried but dont seem to be able to solve this problem. I have tried reinstalling and it successfully installs. I can launch the app and it initialises, loads preferences, load plug ins but then becomes stuck at activating plugins. See attached

Hi @Wellington_Majora,

Please share the following details :

  • Name and version of your operating system

  • Version of Compass that you have installed

Also, have you tried installing any older version of Compass ?

My OS is Windows 10 Home Edition

MongoDB Compass 1.21.2

My assignment was due today but I have not been able to complete it. Can I get an extension?

Hi @Wellington_Majora,

This :point_down:

Please try an older version of Compass 1.20.0.

Unfortunately, you cannot get any extension. You can enrol in the next offering of M001.

@Wellington_Majora you can just add this path to your path

C:\Windows\System32\wbem

This worked well for me! Using win10
