.htaccess doesn't work on xampp (windows 7)

Question

I\'m setting my .htaccess file right now to use friendly urls (manually). But, when i go to the url the server shows me Error 404

Answer 1

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]

if we want to remove index.php form url .First we create a .htaccess file on root directory of project with out any extension. And add this code in this file and so remove the index.php Application/config/config.php
