title: MySql for Windows, MySql Administrator: Scheduled backup not working
body: <p>My question is a bit specific, but I hope someone has experience with the issue.</p>
  
  <p>I'm running a Windows 2008 server with MySql for Windows installed it. It's MySql 5.2 and that package contains "MySql Administrator". There you can make backups of a specific database. When I configure the backups and also say that it needs to be done daily around 3 am in the morning, it doesn't work automatically. It's only when I press "Execute backup now" that I get to save the .SQL file and then the backup itselve works fine. When I ask it to fire automatically nothing is created and not even a log file is being made. I've checked the rights on the selected folder and i've added the user "Everyone" with all rights to rule out any permission issues. No effect.</p>
  
  <p>I've been Googling for day's and I can't find a solution for this. Does anyone know why my automated backup via the MySQL administrator is not working on MS Windows 2008 and why it isn't even creating a log file?</p>
