Cannot edit a post after it is created.

    After months of leaving and deleting my WordPress site, I decided to try again. I downloaded the new version 4.7.3, installed and added a new post. So far so good.

    I then went back to edit the post and the same error that I received before, cannot find the post; nothing to see here, message.

    I cannot edit any new post that I create, but I can create a new post. The odd things are that I can modify the default message that is created on install by WordPress.

    I deleted the database and the entire home directory multiple times. Deleted the .htaccess file and changed permalinks to no avail as well.

    The setup is a fresh install with no plugins, no themes used except default. I tried switching between the different default also. Still, no dice.

    Whenever I click the update, it returns a 404 error, page not found, as stated by Firefox dev tool. Add new does work. If I click to edit a new post, it brings the page up in the editor. But as soon as I click update, 404 error.

    This is the contents of the .htaccess file as by WordPress.

    # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>

    # END WordPress
