 * So I’m using WordPress version 6.3 and I’m currently dealing with an issue of
   whenever I click a link in my admin panel it sends me to a 404 page not found.
   Whenever I delete the .htaccess and am able to get into the permalinks and flush
   it; it changes the index.php in the wp-admin page and causes an HTTP 500 error.
   
   I’ve tried disabling plugins, disabling themes, replacing the wp-admin and wp-
   includes folders with those of a fresh install, editing the wp-config, editing
   the .htaccess. If anyone has any recommendations/solutions I would greatly appreciate
   it!

 * can you rename your already .htaccess to .htaccess.bk
 * and create a new one with these default values
 *     ```wp-block-code
       # BEGIN WordPress
   
       RewriteEngine On
       RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
       RewriteBase /
       RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
       RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
   
       # END WordPress
       ```
