You can manage folder browsing in IIS settings.,

• Open IIS Manager and navigate to the folder you want to manage.

• In Features View, double-click Directory Browsing.

• In the Actions pane, click Enable/Disable.

This is for IIS7.

you can also use commandline for this.

 appcmd set config /section:directoryBrowse /enabled:true|false
