How do you take a Full back up in MySQL (as like in SQL server via SSMS)

Hello:
I just need to take a one time Full bakcup of a MySQL database. I dont know PHP and Linux or all the there LAMP stack utilities.
I am a SQL server DBA and just needs to ensure I back up a small database in MySQL workbench.

Is there any gui inteface to take that small backup?
I looked up online and many suggestions go to the route of PHP and other command line ways, but I am looking for a gui from the Workbench, something like r-click , tasks, bakcup (like in SSMS)

Thank you.

thank you,
I tried the workbench link and done the export.
after it finished I opened the file location and I see all the backed up "MySQL" tables in a (.sql) format! When I double click on them, SQLserver opens with the query window of that backup. does that make sense?! They should really open with Mysql.




thanks.
