Cygwin Dos2Unix Command not found

I am having some problems using cygwin. I am trying to use the dos2unix utility and cygwin is throwing -bash: dos2unix: command not found When I go back into the installer and look through the packages I can't even find dos2unix, yet when I look at cygwin's package list it is clearly there.

Any help would be much appreciated!

You should find dos2unix in the category Utils, Base, or Text. It's easiest to use the search function. If the package is not listed at all, try to use a different mirror.

If you installed this package while your cygwin terminal is still open, do a rehash (depends on you shell) or simply start a new terminal.

Additional option, may be helpful for someone:

To install additional packages in windows from command line you can use your cygwin installer (which you've downloaded to install cygwin, it's gui and all the stuff):

$ setup-x86_64.exe -q -P dos2unix

apt-cyg install dos2unix if you are in the cygwin Terminal

I had a similar problem that was due to me being extra stupid. In my case, I have both 32 and 64 bits builds of Cygwin installed. I had installed "dos2unix" on the 32 bit version, but not installed it on the 64 bit version. I couldn't understand why the installer seemed to work, but I still couldn't run it!

Advice - don't install both versions of Cygwin. :)
