In the old ages of MS-DOS, I would have said that you forgot to load ANSI.SYS. It seems that Windows 8.1 can switch off interpreting ANSI sequences, or does not support them natively. https://www.liferay.com/de/web/igor.spasic/blog/-/blogs/enable-ansi-colors-in-windows-command-prompt (and others) suggests that you need third party software to enable ANSI sequences.
