You can also redirect them through your hosting's cPanal. But still you have to redirect them through .htaccess file.

From user control panel or htaccess you can resolve such errors.

Make sure you have access to your server and your Apache configuration file, and that you can use your .htaccess files. The ability to use .htaccess files will reside in a command called “Allow Override” in the Apache config file. If you do not have this access, you’ll have to first call your hosting company and get access.

It goes like this:

Remove the 301 redirect (either on webserver level or through a plugin, depending on where it has been set).
If the page which the 301 redirect was going to is gone, then update or remove any links going to that page.
Point links to the page which was redirecting so it can be crawled & indexed again. Please note that this may take a while since well, a 301 redirect is a permanent redirect. The more links (both internal and external) the page gets the sooner it’s back in the SERPs.

301 redirect is the most efficient and Search Engine Friendly method for webpage redirection. It's not that hard to implement and it should preserve your search engine rankings for that particular page. If you have to change file names or move pages around, it's the safest option. The code "301" is interpreted as "moved permanently".
