    Hi Lester,

    I get this red warning message before making a back up.
    “MYSQL dump path does NOT exist. Please check your mysqldump path under DB Options. If uncertain, contact your server administrator.”

    See the whole message below.

    Any ideas how to get that fixed? Is it still safe to use your plugin with WP Version 4.6.1?
    Can I make a back up anyways? Or is that not a good idea?

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Try backing up to see if it works. For some hosts, sometime it will fail to detect the path. If the backup doesn’t work, I am afraid you have to try another backup plugin like WP-DB-Backup.

    The plugin will work fine with 4.6.1. I am using version myself.
