in thread $^I why this symbol does not work ?

No. Under Windows, you cannot use -i, you have to use -i.bak or something like that, because you cannot "rewrite" a file on the fly, at least not with the simple approach that the -p switch does.

You will need to create the backup file and then erase it afterwards.
