I am developing a Joomla 3.6.4 website on Rochen Shared Hosting.

I have Admin Tools Pro installed.

I have used the .htaccess maker in Admin Tools.

I have 'Use URL rewriting' set to 'Yes' in Global Configuration of Joomla.

Yet the URLs on my website are still including 'index.php'.

Can you advise how I should configure '.htaccess maker', or .htaccess direct, to remove index.php

I am aware that there are some critical notes about Rochen Shared Hosting and the conflict with Admin Tools. But there seems to be so much conflicting advice in these notes that I cannot see what is the RIGHT and latest advice.

What would you suggest?.

This issue is actually completely unrelated to Admin Tools or the .htaccess file. SEF URLs are generated by Joomla itself depending on the setting of the 'Use URL rewriting' setting. You have set that up correctly. Therefore the only thing which could possibly be wrong is caching. Make sure you clear your site's frontend and backend cache and then clear your browser's cache too.
