OpenCart 3 SEO URLs not working correctly

Seems like it's not a rare issue, yet I couldn't find a proper solution for it.

My assumption is that since there is the SEO URLs core module it should do the work without any additional modules or .htaccess edits. But after I enable SEO URLs in System/Settings/Server not all of my URLs are SEO. Some of them change to SEO, but others still look like index.php?route=account/register, index.php?route=information/contact, index.php?route=product/product&path=57&product_id=49 etc.

What should I do to fix this?

    To remove the common/home you need to change the following files

    Open seo_url.php from catalog/controller/startup.

    find 

    } elseif ($key == 'path') {

    and replace with

     } elseif ($key == 'route') {
 $query = $this->db->query("SELECT * FROM " . DB_PREFIX . "seo_url WHERE `query` = '" . $this->db->escape($value) . "' AND store_id = '" . (int)$this->config->get('config_store_id') . "' AND language_id = '" . (int)$this->config->get('config_language_id') . "'");
if ($query->num_rows && $query->row['keyword']) {
$url .= '/' . $query->row['keyword'];
unset($data[$key]);
} else if ($data['route'] == "common/home") { 
$url .= '/'; 
} 

} elseif ($key == 'path') {
