I have MySQL 8.0.26 installed but when I type mysqldump in PowerShell I get a The term 'mysqldump' is not recognized error.

When I open up the installer everything is installed.

Back in the day mysqldump would have been in the bin\ directory of a MySQL install but that is no longer the case. Here's C:\Program Files\MySQL:

C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Shell 8.0 has a bin directory inside it but no mysqldump inside that bin directory.

Here's C:\Program Files (x86)\MySQL:

Is there a more modern way to do SQL dumps these days or something?

    The tool in question should be located within the MySQL Workbench folder. Have you searched the entire root directory for the file? – Ramhound May 10 '22 at 14:13
  • Verify the tool does not exist within [this](https://dev.mysql.com/get/Downloads/MySQL-8.0/mysql-8.0.29-winx64.zip) file. – Ramhound May 10 '22 at 14:34
