I think this fails because Windows doesn't know about the "#!" magic
on the first line of command.pl. (On Posix systems, the OS kernel
notices that magic string and handles the rest of the first line by
invoking the named interpreter on the script.)
I'd try this:
M-x shell-command-on-region RET perl H:/bin/command.pl RET
Did that work?
