Cannot check a checkbox control using Selenium with C#

Question

I'm trying to check a simple input type=checkbox using Selenium with C#, this is the HTML code I'm using:

<div _ngcontent-c5="" class="check-item">
    <input _ngcontent-c5="" class="custom ng-untouched ng-pristine ng-valid" id="captcha" type="checkbox">
    <label _ngcontent-c5="" for="captcha" translate="">Text</label>
</div>

I've tried almost all possible approaches like XPath, ID, Class name with no success, this seems to be an Angular label or something like that Thanks in advance!

Have you tried By.CssSelector("[for='captcha']");? This is a css selector for labels that point to an input with an id.
