Unable to access custom CSS and JavaScript files

I recently installed a fresh copy of windows and, thus, new versions of Apache, MySQL, and WordPress. I am currently working on a custom theme that makes use of CSS and JS files stored under the theme directory in the css and javascript directories, respectively.

Whenever I attempt to access these files, they direct to the 404 page of the theme. For example, I can see the directory listing of /wp-content/themes/soulful/css/, but if I click on any of the files listed, it goes directly to the 404 page. Even more curiously, it is the 404 page of the default theme, not even the theme I have activated. I do not, however, have any issue accessing image files that are stored in a similar images directory.

I’ve never had this issue before, so its giving me quite the headache. Any help is appreciated.
