French etiquette simply would advise you not to answer.
“Pas de problème” is common and sounds uneducated. It’s often used though.
“ je t’en prie/ je vous en prie” .It is polite.
Do you remember one day, you put a deep smile on someone's face and made them very happy?
“Il n’y a pas de quoi” . It is friendly and can be slightly familiar but it’s informal and acceptable.
“De rien” is not correct although it is often heard. Avoid it. It should be “Ce n’est rien”.
If you want to answer to a person saying “merci” you can say also:
How do you respond to "I don't like you anymore"?
“c’est un plaisir” or “avec plaisir” “c’est mon plaisir” is polite.
