I keep getting error code 500 internal server error WordPress

Agus Setiawan comments:

just delete .htaccess on your root folder :) hope that help.

Can I just delete it without any side effects, or do I need to back something up, it is showing 0 bytes, does this mean it's empty?

Agus Setiawan comments:

let me help you to fix this

Agus Setiawan comments:

open up .htaccess, and put this code

# 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

that will resolve your problem
