Alternative for Options MultiViews on new Apache

i am using in htaccess

AcceptpathInfo On
Options MultiViews
MultiviewsMatch Handlers

to set pretty URL and something more. This set extension in filename as optional. For examle http://server.com/index will be the same as http://server.com/index.php (more useful it is in robots.txt.php, style.css.php and more). But after update to new version of XAMPP (Apache 2.4.10 and PHP 5.6.3) it doesn´t work (error 403), but in older XAMPP it works. Do you know about any alternative for this or how to set it? Error is at line

Options MultiViews

Actually, noticed something that may address your problem. So, with apache 2.4, you need a + or - in front of each option, so you need:

Options +Multiviews

If that still doesn't work, maybe mod_rewrite can do it (but you need to try each extension). Something like:

RewriteEngine On

# check for PHP extension
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/$1.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /$1.php [L]

# chek for HTML extension
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/$1.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /$1.html [L]

etc. for each extension you want to check for.
