Please always specify version and platform when asking questions.

Does the grep command work with those options if you try it on the
command line in the appropriate directory?

Anything grep outputs should be shown, so perhaps it doesn't return
anything, including an error message.

Unfortunately some more user friendly completion processing is
available in Unix, but Windows does not provide the same completion
statuses.
