Xampp 7.3.3 fresh install of WordPress 404 pages unless permalink is set to plain

I have been running xampp 7.3.3 for quite a while but i have recently installed 2 fresh installs of wordpress and if the permalinks are set to anything other than plain the pages are showing 404.

i have turned off all plugins and changed themes but the issue still happens

The home page will work ok I have tried resaving permalinks I have checked the Apache modules

Has anyone had this issue?

I am going to install a new version of xampp to see if it still happens. edit: I have donea new install of the latest xampp and the same thing happens

Any advice appreciated

I know you mentioned that you checked the Apache modules but can you check this solution here maybe you overlooked one of them? Also do you have any Virtual hosts? I once had a similar issue with them.
