Open config.php and do following replaces
From:
$config['index_page'] = "index.php";
To:
$config['index_page'] = "";
$config['uri_protocol'] = "REQUEST_URI";
Add in .htaccess file
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond $1 !^(index\.php|resources|robots\.txt)
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f

Try the below code to remove index.php from url, Make an htaccess file in the root folder and paste the below code in it.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php/$1 [L]
For remove index.php in the url you need to change the configuration.
Change the following in your config.php file
$config['index_page'] = "index.php";
TO
$config['index_page'] = "";
This will remove index.php from url.

Answer 4

If it helps anyone here, this problem drove me crazy and the solution for me was removing the capital letters from the project folder (it was originally localhost/working/CourseIgnite/).
so after many attempts at the problem I changed site to localhost/working/courseignite/
Then using the solutions that everyone posts worked. Mod rewrite on, change base url and index in the config, and used the below in the htaccess.
Just hope this helps as it was driving me bonkers.
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /working/courseignite
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?/$1 [L,QSA]
Then in application/config
$config['index_page'] = "index.php";
TO
$config['index_page'] = "";
and also in application/config
$config['base_url'] = "yourlocalhostip/working/courseignite/";
