"listing directory" keeps popping up

For some reason I keep having issues with this specific project file. The live server shows "listing directory" instead of the scoreboard. I didn't make any changes to the project file. Anyone knows what could be the problem?

Late answer to be sure, but I had to not use Live Server on VS Code to get around this. The reason this has happened is because using the "npx create-react-app" command includes all of the server files it needs to run from command line.

Using "npm start" from the VS Code terminal will launch the website with no issues, so even if this is too late to help you, hope this helps others who come after.
