Above command installs public/.htaccess to remove index.php in your URL. If you don't need it, please remove it.

And it changes application/config/config.php:

$config['composer_autoload'] = FALSE;
↓
$config['composer_autoload'] = realpath(APPPATH . '../vendor/autoload.php');

$config['index_page'] = 'index.php';
↓
$config['index_page'] = '';
