Can't get Mongo Shell working on Windows 7

I'm working on a Windows 7 SP1 machine.

I just started using Atlas. Trying to connect to my cluster, I followed the instructions to download mongo shell. I put it in a folder, and opened a terminal. In the terminal I navigated to the bin directory of the mongo shell download folder. Then, when I try to run the connection string, I get an error that I'll translate from spanish:

"Cannot find procedure's point of entry BCryptHash in bcrypt.dll."

I don't know which other details to include in my question. How do I fix this so I can connect via mongo shell?

Check Install MongoDB Community Edition on Windows

Platform Support

EOL Notice

Quite clear I would say.
