    Hello,
    I changed the constant for HMBKP_PATH to my c:\backups directory. When I execute a backup the mysqldump begins and I can see it write the file to the c:\backups location. However, after the backup completes it instantly moves it to my wp-content\backups… directory.

    I appreciate any advice on how to stop the move from happening.

  • I see the same thing happening.

    nevermind – found that I was saving the HMBKP is the wrong location of the WP-CONFIG file.

    put the HMBKP_PATH before “stop editing”, all the backup files will be written to your path.

    define( ‘HMBKP_PATH’, ‘D:\your\backup\path’ );

    /* That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */

    /** Absolute path to the WordPress directory. */
    if ( !defined(‘ABSPATH’) )
    define(‘ABSPATH’, dirname(__FILE__) . ‘/’);
