I faced this problem and try to figure out. I agree with Chris O'Toole. I will add an extra step. My steps are,

Open app/etc/di.xml and search Symlink. Check it is in the following section.

<virtualType name="developerMaterialization" type="Magento\Framework\App\View\Asset\MaterializationStrategy\Factory">
                <arguments>
                    <argument name="strategiesList" xsi:type="array">
                        <item name="view_preprocessed" xsi:type="object">Magento\Framework\App\View\Asset\MaterializationStrategy\Copy</item>
                        <item name="default" xsi:type="object">Magento\Framework\App\View\Asset\MaterializationStrategy\Copy</item>
                    </argument>
                </arguments>
            </virtualType>

Replace Symlink with Copy word. Save.

Delete all folders in pub/static. Don't delete .htaccess and other files.
Run xamppXAMPP as an administrator. Run the command line as an administrator. Run grunt exec:<theme name>.

You will see it is running fine.

Then you can run grunt less:<theme name>

Finally, you can run grunt watch

When you do any changes in lessfewer files(_theme.less or _extend.less) it will automatically create style-l and style-m cssCSS files in pub/static folder.
