pg_dumpall on Windows

[graceful compass]

Hey ! I try to backup my Immich files but I don't understand how is working the command "docker exec -t immich_postgres pg_dumpall --clean --if-exists --username=postgres > "\path\to\backup\dump.sql"" founded on the website. Where can I execute ? I'm not yet experienced enough... And I'm not already on Linux 😉 Not yet.

Thanks !

You would run this at the same place where you did the docker compose up, etc commands

when you installed immich
