I assume you have a non-latin keyboard layout set-up on you system (which is probably the first layout defined in Windows' regional settings [1])?

Could you check if the following development build of 0.92.x branch works for you:
https://ci.appveyor.com/project/Ede123/inkscape/build/0.92.x_shortcuts-429/job/w34fl43np4tgkid2/artifacts

It has a fix applied which selects the first latin layout and sets up shortcuts in that (previous versions used to set-up shortcuts in the first available keyboard layout, so if that does not produce latin characters "Ctrl-P" obviously won't work)
