Howtogeek shows you how to extend your Office 2013 trial to 180 days



In recent years it has become common for Microsoft to release trial or preview versions of its big-name products. This has been the case with Windows 8 as well as Office 2013 giving consumer the chance to try before they buy. If you downloaded the trial version of the suite, you can gain some extra try-out time with this handy hack. The trial version of Office 365 is only meant to be used for 30 days. After this time you are expected to by a license or stop using the software. In practice, Office does not become unusable, but instead enters a reduced functionality mode. But if you are not sure about committing to the purchase, you can extend you trial period so you can test drive the office suite for a little longer.
