index.php and template group removal

Apparently paid support can’t be bothered, maybe the someone in the community can help.

I’m trying to remove index.php and the template group from the url and spent yesterday, last night and today doing so. Recently started clearing cache in Firefox after each trial. Not sure if there are cache issues. For some reason I’m getting a redirect to http://localhost/xampp with the majority of these .htaccess files. It was not doing so earlier yesterday.

My current setup:

http://localhost/Expression/myTemplate/Events
http://localhost/Expression/myTemplate/

$config['uri_protocol']    = 'AUTO';
$config['index_page'] = "";
$config['base_url'] = "http://localhost/Expression/";

DocumentRoot "/Install/Xampp/xampp/htdocs"

# Each directory to which Apache has access can be configured with respect
# to which services and features are allowed and/or disabled in that
# directory (and its subdirectories). 
#
# First, we configure the "default" to be a very restrictive set of 
# features.  
#
<Directory >
    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride ALL
    Order deny,allow
    Deny from all
</Directory>

#
# Note that from this point forward you must specifically allow
# particular features to be enabled - so if something's not working as
# you might expect, make sure that you have specifically enabled it
# below.
#

#
# This should be changed to whatever you set DocumentRoot to.
#
<Directory "/Install/Xampp/xampp/htdocs">
    #
    # Possible values for the Options directive are "None", "All",
    # or any combination of:
    #   Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks SymLinksifOwnerMatch ExecCGI MultiViews
    #
    # Note that "MultiViews" must be named *explicitly* --- "Options All"
    # doesn't give it to you.
    #
    # The Options directive is both complicated and important.  Please see
    # <a href="http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#options">http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#options</a>
    # for more information.
    #
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes ExecCGI

    #
    # AllowOverride controls what directives may be placed in .htaccess files.
    # It can be "All", "None", or any combination of the keywords:
    #   Options FileInfo AuthConfig Limit
    #
    AllowOverride All

    #
    # Controls who can get stuff from this server.

    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
