Product: HP Pavilion 15.6 inch Laptop PC 15-eh1000 (2H5A7AV)
Hi - I have a brand new out of the box HP laptop - have connected to wifi and it wants me to add a Microsoft account - don’t have one so set one up with a **bleep** address, entered the code, swiveled the pictures, it says ‘Verification complete’ but there is no button to click to move on and if I go back I have to start the whole process again. Any clues?
