.htaccess not enabled or misconfigured

The zc v157a installer reports .htaccess not enabled. I am using MAMP Pro version 6 on a local development system. I have tried various combinations of MAMP's Apache settings AllowOverride is set to all. MAMP's default is Require but I've also set it All Granted (with the virtual host name). I had previously installed zc v157 and run it with MAMP Pro 5 and do not recall this error then. Many .htaccess files were changed in v157a. How do I get past this error?

Re: .htaccess not enabled or misconfigured

If it's on local development you can ignore the warning.

The warning is intended to help ensure there is no unauthorized access to protected files, when running with real live website traffic.
