How to set up a 301 redirect in Joomla?

Question

Joomla

Hello! the essence of the problem, as it were, is as follows. it seems to be registered in .htaccess, but it doesn’t make a fuss:
you need links like
site.ru/index.php/2-uncategorised.html?start=40
site.ru/index.php/produktsiya/2- uncategorised.html...
cut off the ends so that they refer to
site.ru/index.php
site.ru/index.php/produktsiya - that is, cut off 2-uncategorised.html?start=
this piece is attributed to many urls, for example site.ru /index.php/kontakty/2-uncategorised.html, but you just need site.ru/index.php/kontakty
wrote the following
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^2-uncategorised.html?start= [NC]
RewriteRule (.*) $1 ? [R=301,L]
but it doesn’t work. maybe I’m writing it wrong? like before that he wrote RewriteEngine on
Thank you in advance.

Admin, General Settings, Enable SEF and URL Redirect.
This problem is solved without .htaccess, by built-in Joomla tools.
If these settings work correctly, there will be no tails and /index.php/.
