Fairly sure you cannot use the commandline in Windows... that is a Linux/MacOS feature only.

As far as I'm aware, command line support was not added back in to the Windows version

oh I see, I get it now. Although I didn't see any part in the documentation that it is not applicable in windows, I will try it in linux/mac.

thanks!
