Crash my site while trying to regenerate an htaccess with htaccess maker.

Copied all the content of kickstart-pro-8.0.6.zip into public_html as well as the latest backup (two files .jpa and .j01) also into public_html. Renamed kickstart.php into bsdrestore.php. Tried launching https://www.blacksharkden.com/bsdrestore.php and got an Error 403 - Forbidden You don't have permission to access the requested resource. Please contact the web site owner for further assistance.

Can you please help? Thank you!

Have you tried deleting the .htaccess file in your site's root directory? You can do so from the hosting control panel's file manager. You may have to choose an option to show hidden files, as all files whose name starts with a dot are hidden in Linux.
