Can’t edit my website (.htaccess problem)

    Whenever I tried to access my website’s dashboard after 2-3 days without opening it, it gives me error 404. To resolve this I deleted my .htacess file and after that I’m able to get into my dashboard.

    However, whenever I tried to edit with Elementor, it creates a new .htacess and it shows me the 404 error page again and if I click the link to go to my dashboard it always redirect me to my homepage. To gain access to my wordpress dashboard again I need to delete my .htaccess file.

    Any idea on how to fix this problem?
