Windows 10: Unable to create account in Microsoft Edge

I am trying to create a new account in MS EDGE and it prompts me: "Because you're accessing sensitive info, we'll send a code to <MyEmailAddress> to verify your identity".I click on the "Send code" button.I enter the code and click on the "Sign in" button.After this the same screen comes back telling me "Because you're accessing sensitive info, we'll send a code to <MyEmailAddress> to verify your identity".After trying few times, I gave up. It is just infinite loop.
