TypeError: wallet.connect is not a function

[OIU2020]

  const encryptedJson = fs.readFileSync("./.encryptkey.json", "utf8");
  let wallet = new ethers.Wallet.fromEncryptedJson(
    encryptedJson,
    process.env.PRIVATE_KEY_PASSWORD
  );
  wallet = await wallet.connect(provider);

You forgot the sync at new ethers.wallet.fromEncryptedJsonSync It should be like this:

const encryptedJson = fs.readFileSync("./.encryptkey.json", "utf8");
let wallet = new ethers.Wallet.fromEncryptedJsonSync(
encryptedJson,
process.env.PRIVATE_KEY_PASSWORD
);
wallet = await wallet.connect(provider);

Let me know if that helps :)

Thanks... This solved the problem.

Did the same. Put .fromEncryptedJson instead of .fromEncryptedJsonSync
