    The press and hold CAPTCHA works much more reliably with a physical mouse. If you have one, plug it in and try holding the mouse button down steadily until the bar fills completely.

    Try a different browser. If you're using Edge, try Google Chrome or Firefox instead.

    Look for a headphones or audio icon near the CAPTCHA

    This gives you a sound-based challenge instead of press and hold

    Press Ctrl + Shift + Delete

    Clear cookies and cached data

    Try again in a fresh browser session

    Alternatively, you may try a different device or a phone create the account at account.microsoft.com
