Hi guys
At times we have to have a recent backup of the SQL database on a development machine to insure that our testing is false-proof prior the same is pushed to a production instance. As SSMS (SQL Server Management Studio) doesn’t allow remote backup functionality out of the box, we can try the following (applies to both home networks and windows domain networks)
From your local machine, setup a shared folder, giving full read/write access to the entity “Everyone”


Now, prior attempting below instructions, be sure of your privileges against the target database. Are you a sys admin? Does your database account have the rights to make a backup? If yes, go ahead
Now, start SSMS & proceed with the backup task

Depending upon the security constraints, you may disable the sharing of local folder immediately after the backup completion.

The network path was not found :(
Well, if you followed the instructions, you shouldn’t face this situation.
I followed exactly the instructions.
Please send me email with a screenshots of how you have created shared location/security etc.
