how to restart mongodb in terminal?

I installed mongodb in VS code by npm install mongodb. And again I downloaded mongodb from official website and installed it as a windows service since I don't know if installing in vscode with npm is enough. It worked for a while.

and now it doesn't work as my database connection with mongoose fails and nothing is running in 27017 port in localhost. Seems like server stopped.

how to restart mongodb server? what's the CLI/terminal command etc for that?

If You Installed MongoDB as a Windows Service The MongoDB service is started upon successful installation.(please check on the below path)

To begin using MongoDB, connect a mongo.exe shell to the running MongoDB instance. Either:

From Windows Explorer/File Explorer, go to C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\4.4\bin\ directory and double-click on mongo.exe.

Or, open a Command Interpreter with Administrative privileges and run:

"C:\Program Files\MongoDB\Server\4.4\bin\mongo.exe"

for more details check. : https://treehouse.github.io/installation-guides/windows/mongo-windows.html

Also, you first need to start the mongodb daemon for your connections to listen then you should connect using mongoose.
