it's removing only stopped containers. You first stop the containers and then remove them using your command or forcefully remove them, also, check this out, this thread, as well docker system prune

$ docker stop $(docker ps -a -q)
$ docker rm $ (docker ps -a -q) 

Hope this works on Windows cmd as well.
