While its technically correct, it can be a bit confusing if you are used to embedded keys in the Visual Studio products like me. Clicking “extend” allows one to register and one is presented with a trial key which activates the full 90 days trial. source: (v=vs.110).aspx This 30 days trial can expanded to 90 days using a trial key which can be obtained by clicking “order online” in this dialog.
Pressing “Cancel” will close the activation window and the first 30 day of the trial will commence. Since we don’t want to upgrade and don’t have a key, one could just click “Cancel”. This dialog was intended for developers which have a license for Visual Studio 2012 and want to upgrade the trail version to the full version or just register to get the full 90 days of evaluation. But what if one used the wrong workflow ? How does one continue ? If one followed the designed workflow through the Microsoft download site one should have gotten a trial key. However when installing the Visual Studio 2012 Trial (Evaluation) one is greeted with the following activation dialog: “Please enter a valid Microsoft Visual Studio Product Key” Please enter a valid Microsoft Visual Studio Product Key Now download Office 365 from Install Apps located at the top right corner. With the release of Visual Studio 2012 Microsoft also released evaluation editions to let people experience that edition of Visual Studio. Then the official MS Office will be opened on your browser.
