404 Error clicking menu items

It seems you installed your site in the wordpress folder
e.g. instead of straight into the root.
That is why https://mydomain.com will generate a 404-error and https://mydomain.com/wordpress won’t.

If you are just starting out:

1. FIRST: In Dashboard > Settings > General Setting > change the ‘wordpress address url’ and ‘Site Address url’to the CORRECT path: https://myExample.com’ and save all changes.
