 * Is there a way to cleanly disable request_filesystem_credentials() other than
   commenting out in the class-filesystem.php file. I run all my updates outside
   of the WOrdpress dashboard, so I never use or save the credentials withing wordpress.
   But the Connection Information form pops up on every page. I dont recall what
   version update caused this to start. I am currently commenting out lines 154 
   and 203 of class-filesystem.php but this will be lost on an update of the plugin.
 * Linux Server. Issue is on all browsers.
 * Thanks

 * Having the same issue where this is causing issues with using the wp cli. Added
   a check to mine to not run if using the wp cli but would like to see this fixed
   as it also breaks part of our build pipeline.

 * Yes, you can try to use the `request_filesystem_credentials` WP filter.
