What is the more common way to say "you're welcome" in French: “De rien” or “Pas de problème”?

If you want to answer to a person saying “merci” you can say also:

“De rien” is not correct although it is often heard. Avoid it. It should be “Ce n’est rien”.

“ je t’en prie/ je vous en prie” .It is polite.

Who is the most dangerous or evilest person of all time?

French etiquette simply would advise you not to answer.

“c’est un plaisir” or “avec plaisir” “c’est mon plaisir” is polite.

“Pas de problème” is common and sounds uneducated. It’s often used though.

I vibrated my dogs shock collar while it was eating my other dog’s food and now it won’t eat. How do I fix this problem?

“Il n’y a pas de quoi” . It is friendly and can be slightly familiar but it’s informal and acceptable.
