We have successfully applied for the EV certificate. How do I register for the Hardware Developer Program?
I cannot register successfully by following this page:

I have a similar problem. When I try to register for the Hardware Program through the Partner Center dashboard, I just get an error saying that my account is not a Microsoft account. Howver, it not only is a Microsoft account, it's the primary account for our Partner Center registration as well as a Global Admin account for our Entra ID.
If I try the link posted above, then I get an error saying that my organization already has an account and to contact my administrator. I am the administrator... We did try to register for an account a couple years ago so it's possible that we have one but I can't find any way to log in or access it since all of the dashboards have changed.
Any help is greatly appreciated! At this point, we are unable to sign drivers for our hardware which is preventing us from making product improvements or releasing new hardware.

We are having exactly the same problem.
As a last attempt we changed our company name and purchased a brand new EV certificate, but we were unsuccessful in registering it on Hardware Program due to error on their process that did not allow us to fill out the forms.
