Introduction
If attempting to connect to MongoDB with a user protected password, but you aren't able to connect to the database through the Simba DSN or the connection string and getting the following error:
Unable to establish a connection with data source. Missing settings: {[PWD]}
Resolution
Please follow these steps:
1. Create a new entry in the DSN as usual
2. Open the Registry Editor
3. Add a string value with name "PWD" to the registry in the following path:
LOCAL_MACHINE --> Software --> ODBC -->ODBC.INI --> <DSN connecton name>
4. Rename the new field added to the name PWD and enter the password of username
