i did disabled the file and as follow the contain of it:
# 1. To use URL Aliases you need to be running apache with mod_rewrite enabled.
# 2. In your abantecart main directory rename file htaccess.txt to .htaccess
# 3. Edit file .htaccess. If abantecart is installed in yourdomain/ subfolder change configuration line RewriteBase / to RewriteBase /subfolder/.
# Example: yourdomain.com/store use RewriteBase /store/
# Important to have / at the end of the line.
# 4. if htaccess and mode_rewrite still does not work - check and set apache2 webserver directive AllowOverride All for your virtual hosts
