If you are looking to compile all LESS files into a folder and subfolder tree in Windows. The following solution is using a batch file in Windows:

File compile-less.bat: @echo
cd ".\pages" for /r %%i in (*.less) do call lessc --clean-css "%%~i" "%%~dpni.min.css" cd ..

EDITED: All the less file in the folder and subfolders will be compiled. Tested in Windows 10 and 8.1
