    Since WordPress 5.2 there is a built-in feature that detects when a plugin or theme causes a fatal error on your site, and notifies you with this automated email.

In this case, WordPress caught an error with one of your plugins, Wordfence Security.
.......
Error Details
=============
An error of type E_COMPILE_ERROR was caused in line 2 of the file /home/psamathe/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wordfence/lib/wfIssues.php. Error message: require_once(): Failed opening required '/home/psamathe/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wordfence/lib/wfUtils.php' (include_path='.:/opt/alt/php74/usr/share/pear')

    Referenced file is present. E-mail looks genuine (source is the web site, links in the e-mail are genuine, etc.)

    Issue or “hiccup”?

    Hi @psamathe

    It appears that a Wordfence file is missing and it could have been due to a faulty update of the plugin.

    Delete the Wordfence directory below:

    ~/wp-content/plugins/wordfence

    Now install Wordfence again from the WordPress Plugins page and this should be fixed for you. Your settings will be intact as they are stored in the database.
