SOLVE:
Mod_rewrite needs to be enabled on xampp for htaccess to work. Its an apache server by the way so htaccess does work.
Find the file called httpd.conf, it should be located in
XAMPPInstallDirectory\apache\conf\
Open with notepad and find this line
#LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so
Remove the #, save it, restart apache (if running).
