Im trying to have a htacess file within my root folder so i can redirect the user to index.php file, if for example trying to access any file inside my root directory. I failed to do that. I have that file inside my root folder as i should, but when im trying to access files typing the names in the URL, i actually have access to the files. So the .htaccess file does not work. I have to mention that im trying to do that locally, having wamp installed and using slim framework. I do not know if something mess with these.
The code that i have in my .htaccess
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^ index.php [L]
