Which path use in the Binary Path pgAdmin configuration

I have pgAdmin installed on my personal computer and it's connected to a remote PostgreSQL database. When I tried to backup a table an alert dialog showed:

'/usr/bin/pg_dump' file not found.
Please correct the Binary Path in the Preferences dialog

Maybe this is a dumb question but: does the path that pgAdmin expects have to be located in the remote server or my localhost?

I want to know what path pgAdmin is expecting.

pgAdmin ships latest PG binaries by default with the desktop version. No need to change bin path in that case. Check the preferences - https://www.pgadmin.org/docs/pgadmin4/8.12/preferences.html#the-paths-node

It is on your local computer. If that happens to be a Windows machine, the path could be something like

C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\17\bin
