sitemap.xml still redirects to sitemap-index.xml

    I deactivated rankmath but my sitemap still redirects to sitemap-index.xml. There’s nothing in my .htaccess that indicated a redirect, so I’m wondering why that’s happening. I can’t submit my sitemap to Google Search Console as it says they can’t fetch (due to the redirect). Thanks in advance for your help!
