Scrape Nonce failed

Im getting SCRAPE NONCE FAILED errors on all wordpress 4.9.4. sites when i try to edit any .php file – whether its in child theme or not. all sites are hosted on SITEGROUND. I have De-Activated ALL plugins and reverted to TwentySeventeen theme and still get the same problem.

I have tested this on PHP v 7.1.1.4 and 7.2 with the same result. Siteground support has made an attempt to check all logs, errors and configs and find same problems.

I have installed and run WP HEALTH CHECK with all plugins de-activated and i get the following errors:

Background Updates: The WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE constant is defined and enabled.
WordPress security and maintenance releases are blocked by define( ‘WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE’, false );
Loopback Request: The loopback request to your site failed, this may prevent WP_Cron from working, along with theme and plugin editors.<br>Error encountered: (0) cURL error 28: Operation timed out after 10001 milliseconds with 0 bytes recei

I also have a few websites at GoDaddy, also running wp 4.9.4 and i cannot edit theme .php files there either but i get a different message – Unable to communicate back with site to check for fatal errors, so the PHP change was reverted. You will need to upload your PHP file change by some other means, such as by using SFTP.

Heres a image link showing example.. Screape Nonce Failed

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated
