Recaptcha not working

i got a fresh new install of windows 11 go to boot up Microsoft edge after every update on windows and edge and reCAPTCHA does not work i don't want no half answer of saying update my browser use a supported browser or reinstall edge change ip done all of that does not fix the issue and it use to work on my old install on edge

found a fix for it and not some half fix that does nothing if you are having this issue, it could be that the time zone the pc is set in is incorrect to your ip so the reCAPTCHA does not know what to do so it's a blank box hope this helps people instead of those who say update the browser which does absolutely nothing

I am experiencing the same issue. My timezone is correct. My solution USE FIREFOX, but I don't want to use FF, I want to use Edge but I can't. I cleared everything, set it back to default. Killed all extensions. Rebooted my machine. Uninstalled my antivirus. Disabled the firewall.

Recaptcha is a blank box at best, most of the time nothing is there except the website saying recaptcha is required. Since this just started with an update of Edge (I'm guessing Chromium, since all Chrome-based browsers are affected).

If anyone finds another solution let me know. I guess I'm leaving Edge for a few months unless there is a solution I haven't tried.

That did not work for me. Google Chrome Recaptcha works. I reset Microsoft edge settings back to default and that seems to work for a couple days then I keep getting a single picture in 16 segments, over and over again.

Wow! I just found something that worked. I cleared the browser data and cache. Upper right corner 3 dots, then select history, then the trash can at the top right, then under "Delete browsing data" click on "Clear Now" and it fixed my recaptcha problem.
