Wp-admin page redirecting to 404 error page – CPanel

I have an issue when I logged in to Wp-admin dashboard page I can see the wordpress-admin bar on the top of the page but the dashboard page actually redirected to 404 error page.
I have disabled all the plugins and activated theme to find the problem, and change the code inside .htaccess file to default wordpress code, but nothing worked.
Also, I have tested to create the test.php page inside the wp-admin directory but it also returned to 404 page when I access to https://example.com/wp-admin/test.php.
So I think the PHP is not working inside the wp-admin? Has anyone experienced this before and have any more ideas?

    Thanks for the helps. I have detected that the wp-admin folder in the directory has the PHP.ini configuration file, I just removed it then the admin dashboard showed up. So in my case, the problem did not come from security plugins or wrong URL. The Wp-admin folder was controlled by php.ini.

    Please take a complete backup of your database and file before
    Sometimes, just updating the site URL solves this problem.

    Login to your FTP client area
    Locate the WP-Config file
    Take a backup of WP-Config.php file
    Then edit it and add this line of code

    define('WP_HOME','http://yourdomain.com');
define('WP_SITEURL','http://yourdomain.com');

    Replace the “yourdomain.com” with your original domain(website name).

    Check if admin dashboard is accessible with https://example.com/wp-login.php.
    If so, do you have any security plugins installed then just deactivate it and check.
