This is from the file manager. You must have specified the root folder for file management. It automatically puts a htaccess file into the file upload root to help prevent hacking.

Delete that file and then make sure your file manager uses a sub-directory for uploads. You want the htaccess file in the file upload root, you just don't want that to be a folder where you have web pages like the site root.

Did this help? Tips are appreciated...
