Re: How to copy (backup) the database?

I have the same question, but about doing the backup from withing ZenCart. I used to be able to do this from the Tools/Database Backup Manager - MySQL screen, but now I can only restore databases by this process. I can no longer back them up. There is no "backup" button. How do I fix this?
