Xampp - Scheduled automated backup of MySQL using PHPAdmin i

Hello,
1. Can someone point me to the steps needed to set up an automated schedule (e.g. every Sunday at 11:30 pm) backup of the MYSQL database, and I changed it inside Xampp (by replacing MariaDB to MySQL). Is it possible to configure this using the PHPAdmin GUI that is browser-based? If yes, please point me to the steps needed to do so. In the current PHPAdmin GUI, I see the "Export" tab but I do not see how I can configure this from the PHPAdmin GUI that is generated from Xamm.

2. If it is not possible to do this configuration using the PHPAdmin GUI, please point me to the steps.

I am using the following:
Windows server:
MediaWiki 1.35.2
Apache 2.4.47 Win64 from Xampp
mysql-8.0.23-winx64 (MySQL :: Download MySQL Community Server)
PHP 7.4.3

Please let me know how I can set up the MySQL so that it is backed up in an automated manner in a target directory of my choice on a schedule (e.g. every Sunday at a chosen time).

0. We do not provide any support for third party software like user installed MySQL Server
1. phpMyAdmin is just a dumb GUI. It cannot have the ability to to anything automatically.
2. Keywords: "Windows scheduled task" and MySQLs CLI command "mysqldump"
