Frequently asked questions
Is Apache .htaccess Validator free?
This tool uses points per successful run. The price is shown before you submit.
Are uploaded files stored?
Most tools process uploads in a private temporary directory and remove them after the request. Temporary share links are the exception and expire automatically; never upload a secret you do not want to share.
What should I do if the result is not correct?
Keep the original file, review the result, and try a smaller input or a related validator. Contact support before replacing a production file.
