Answer 2

I realised that i dint have a mongosh file in my bin folder(user/programfiles/mongo/server/bin/), so i had to download the mongoshell. you can download it from here. then after downloading it extract it and then go to the bin folder of the newly downloaded mongoshell and copy the path of the bin folder, then add it to the environment variaboles, restart your terminal and vwalla!
