How to remove "index.php?p=/" from all URLs?

Is there any easy way to remove all index.php?p=/ from URLs? Possibly in .htaccess?
Current URL:
http://domain.com/index.php?p=/categories/categoryname
Preferred URL:
http://domain.com/categories/apps
Any easy way to do this?

Added to /conf/config.php
$Configuration['Garden']['RewriteUrls'] = true;
web.config
Live URL: http://66.45.240.93/activity
Open any page, it will redirect to same.

What's web.config? Is it IIS? There are some discussions on that topic but I don't remember if it is possible to use Vanilla on IIS
Yes, it's on IIS. There's a web.config file for rewrite rules for IIS.
I found a post, someone had the same issue. Looks like work on IIS. Please see the link below.

As discussed in this discussion post, I guess something wrong with the .htaccess file.
This is the .htaccess file that I using.

Did you uncomment this line
# RewriteBase /By removing # ?
If your forum is in a folder ie forum
Then it should be
RewriteBase /forumYes, I did the same in the .htaccess file.
Open any page, only load the home page.
I added $Configuration['Debug'] = TRUE; in the conf/config.php
Now you can see the log.
