 * Hi,
    I have this PHP error : PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined
   function get_filesystem_method() in /wp-content/plugins/wp-hide-security-enhancer/
   modules/components/rewrite-new_theme_path.php:769
 * Is it possible to be an incompatibility with a plugin like WPRocket ?

 * Okay i fixed it by removing the if condition here (line 760):
 *     ```
       if (empty($wp_filesystem)) 
       {
       require_once (ABSPATH . '/wp-admin/includes/file.php');
       WP_Filesystem();
       }
       ```
   
 * replace by :
 *     ```
       require_once (ABSPATH . '/wp-admin/includes/file.php');
       WP_Filesystem();
       ```

 * Hi,
    Somehow the $wp_filesystem global variable appears to be set by another 
   code, still not correctly as not a filesystem object. Probably another plugin
   does that. We will update that area in the next plugin version to avoid such 
   issues.
 * Thanks
