How to perform a Neo4j database backup in Windows 10?

The neo4j documentation says that I gotta run some commands from the neo4j-admin tool, which is a terminal supposedly located in the bin folder, but I can't find that tool. there's also a cypher shell but when I open it as an administrator it shuts down immediately. Is there any other way of performing the backup? The neo4j version is 3.2.3.

I think that the simplest way to do a full database backup is coping the content of the data folder.

According the docs (file locations):

  • For /Windows zip installation the folder is <neo4j-home>\data
  • Using desktop installer the folder is %APPDATA%\Neo4j Community Edition
