It's hard to believe, but there's no zip
in my cygwin (I can't recall excluding any packages; on the opposite, I added a lot of stuff).
- How can I install it?
The search page returns "zip", but typing "zip" in the cygwin-setup search window shows "bzip2" and "gzip" only, no "zip". I wouldn't be surprised if "zip" was contained in these packages, but while both "bzip2" and "gzip" commands work, I'm getting "zip: command not found".
My cygwin still pretends there's no zip at all:
> cygcheck -vf /usr/bin/zip
> type zip
bash: type: zip: not found
> /usr/bin/zip
bash: /usr/bin/zip: No such file or directory
And there's no "zip" package in my setup:

The package itself is called zip. The page you link to is exactly it, so I'm not sure why it wouldn't be working for you. https://cygwin.com/packages/x86_64/zip/
