you're screen is showing `M-x dired`, which is normally how you would list a directory, see also `dired-jump`, since you're using `projectile`, you also have `projectile-dired` — Rorschach, Mar 06 '20 at 14:07

C-x d opens Dired on the directory you mention letting you perform actions on files that you mark in the list.
C-x C-d lists the directory. Similar to Dired, but without the possibility to act on listed files.

See the Emacs manual, node Dired Enter.
