I recently downloaded Ubuntu from the microsoft store, and I am looking to install fdupes to get rid of a bunch of duplicate files I have. When i try to install, i'm met with:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package fdupes

I have looked around but I have no clue how to download the package or any basic Ubuntu options, I am completely new to this. I also only have the terminal window downloaded from the microsoft store. Additionally, if i try to update, i get the error that it cannot reach the archive or security URLs listed.

Please Help
