 * I created a new directory on my website. I added a few files to it. When I try
   to access the directory or files, I get the WordPress page saying that nothing
   is found. The problem is that these files and directory are not connected to 
   WordPress at all. WordPress is installed on the root directory of my website.
 * Why is WordPress giving me this error? One of the files is an EXE. If I type 
   the URL of the EXE in my browser, I get the nothing found error, even though 
   the EXE is on my website.
 * I thought that it might have been one of my security plugins (iThemes security
   Pro and WordFence). I have disabled both of my security plugins to no avail.

 * Can you share a link to a valid file name that’s currently located inside a directory
   where the issue can be duplicated by others? Preferably **not** an .exe file.
