Create a new .htpasswd file in the root directory.
Visit the website: hostingcanada.org/htpasswd-generator/
Enter the username and password used to access the admin.php file. Then click Create .htpasswd file
Then you will get a piece of code that looks like: username:{SHA}abcxyzxxxx
Copy that code and paste it into the .htpasswd file.

That's It! When you visit the file through your browser, you'll now be prompted for a username and password.
