Less grunt watcher not updating css

Question

I have the following gruntfile.js code:

less: {
   development: {
      files: [{
         expand: true,
         cwd: 'assets/less',
         src: ['*.less'],
         dest: 'wwwroot/content/css/',
         ext: '.css'
      }]
   }
},
watch: {
   less: {
      files: ["assets/less/*.less"],
      task: ["less:development"]
    }
};


grunt.loadNpmTasks("grunt-contrib-less");
grunt.loadNpmTasks("grunt-contrib-watch");

When I run the scan task and make changes to any of my smaller files, it detected changes in fewer files:

The file "assets \ less \ abc.less" has been modified.

But the problem is that it does not update my abc.css file. Does anyone know why this is and how to fix it? Thanks

Hehe ... just another question with this problem, and this is the same problem:

watch: {
   less: {
      files: ["assets/less/*.less"],
      tasks: ["less:development"]    // <-- note that this is PLURAL! :)
    }
}
