I have been trying to activate my Microsoft 365, but I keep encountering an issue during the activation process. Every time I successfully complete the “I'm not a robot” verification, I click the “Save” button, but nothing happens. The button remains blue, and even though I can click it, the page does not proceed to the next step. It just stays stuck on the same screen. I urgently need to activate and use Microsoft 365 as soon as possible, so I would greatly appreciate your assistance in resolving this issue.

    Try this in order:

    1. Redeem the key in a different browser or an InPrivate/Incognito window.
    2. Clear the browser cache and cookies, then try again.
    3. Try the redemption on a different device.
    4. If the key is new, redeem it through Office.com/setup or https://microsoft365.com/setup and follow the on-screen prompts. This one-time process adds the product to the Microsoft account used for redemption.
    5. After redemption, sign in to the Services & subscriptions page and confirm the Microsoft 365 subscription or product appears there.
    6. If Microsoft 365 is already installed but not activating, open an Office app and make sure the correct Microsoft account is signed in. The product or subscription should match what appears under Services & subscriptions.
    7. If activation still fails on Windows, run the Microsoft 365 activation troubleshooter on the same Windows PC where Microsoft 365 is installed. It requires Windows 10 or later.
    8. If the page still does not move forward after the verification and Save button, contact Microsoft support through the public support channel for account and activation assistance.

    If the product key was purchased from a source other than an official Microsoft store or partner, the key may be invalid or blocked. In that case, contact the seller for a refund.

    Hi Leonita,

    1

    Try registering your Microsoft 365 product key on this link:

    https://setup.office.com/Home

    If that is not successful, try registering your product key on this link.

    https://account.microsoft.com/billing/redeem

    2

    Then, even if the process seems to be stuck, log into your Microsoft account on this link and check if your Microsoft 365 subscription has been linked to your account correctly.

    https://account.microsoft.com/services/

    That stuck Save button is usually the browser rather than the key itself, so try the same step in a private window with extensions, any ad blocker and any VPN turned off. Clearing the browser cache and cookies first can also help, as an old stored session can stop the verification finishing properly. If it still does not move after a few minutes, try a different browser or device and check that you are signed in with the same Microsoft account you want the subscription on.
