[2867] HMR stops working (ERR_CONNECTION_RESET), requires server restart every time

I'm having a very weird problem. I've tried everything I could think of to no avail, hope you guys can help me out.

I'm using the Nuxt.js + Express template, and things work nicely but my server is randomly disconnected after some time (see screenshot). I tried disabling any firewall/antivirus (Windows 10), removed every configuration from my hosts file but it keeps happening ...

Every time the server disconnects I have to rebuild the project, and it's super painful to work like this.

package.json:

  "dependencies": {
    "@nuxtjs/auth": "^4.0.0-rc.3",
    "@nuxtjs/axios": "^4.5.2",
    "@nuxtjs/toast": "^2.3.3",
    "@nuxtjs/vuetify": "latest",
    "axios": "^0.16.2",
    "babel-polyfill": "^6.26.0",
    "bcryptjs": "^1.1.0",
    "body-parser": "^1.18.2",
    "cross-env": "^5.0.1",
    "express": "^4.15.3",
    "faker": "^4.1.0",
    "knex": "^0.14.4",
    "mysql": "^2.15.0",
    "nuxt": "^1.3.0",
    "objection": "^1.0.0",
    "source-map-support": "^0.4.15",
    "vee-validate": "^2.0.4",
    "vue-js-modal": "^1.3.10",
    "vue-moment": "^2.2.0",
    "vue-truncate-filter": "^1.1.7"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "babel-eslint": "^7.2.3",
    "babel-preset-stage-1": "^6.24.1",
    "backpack-core": "^0.5.0",
    "eslint": "^4.18.0",
    "eslint-config-standard": "^10.2.1",
    "eslint-loader": "^1.9.0",
    "eslint-plugin-html": "^3.1.1",
    "eslint-plugin-import": "^2.7.0",
    "eslint-plugin-node": "^5.1.1",
    "eslint-plugin-promise": "^3.5.0",
    "eslint-plugin-standard": "^3.0.1",
    "node-sass": "^4.7.2",
    "sass-loader": "^6.0.6"
  }

Any help would be appreciated.
