Trying to dump simple database via MySQL Workbench by clicking... Server > Data Export >mydb>Start Export
Get Message: mysqldump Version Mismatch... the message shows these versions mysqldump.exe ver 5.7.1.7 MySQL Server ver 5.7.19

After you have the archive, you can find mysqldump.exe inside "/bin" folder.
This is a standalone software so you can copy it where you want, then delete the rest of the archive.
Make sure you get 5.7 not 8.0 version of the zip file and extract all of the zip.
