Yes. Certain antivirus programs or other security software might interfere with MongoDB's ability to access files or network ports. Temporarily disable such software and attempt to start MongoDB to see if the issue resolves. If so, configure the software to exclude MongoDB's data directory, log directory, and executable from its scanning or blocking activities.
