The method shown in the Immich documents for backing up on Windows does not work well and it does not properly back up city names in languages other than English.
Cities in Hebrew and Arabic languages would appear as ┘ו╪»┘ך┘ז╪⌐ ╪¿┘ז┘ך ┘ך╪º╪│and caused problems after restoring from a backup.
A solution to this problem is to backup directly from the Docker container and then copy the file to Windows.
The script will create a folder named
Immich DB backups
on the desktop where a file namedimmich_dump.sql.gz
will be stored.It's important for me to say, I'm not a big expert in PS that's why I used artificial intelligence to write this script, it works well and does the job properly.
I will understand if you don't want to include it in the documentation, however if we don't include it we will have to remove the option of backing up the database in Windows and instead put a link to the gits I created or link it to the Community Guides, or find a way to back up the database properly , as you see fit :)
