Important:
You have an initial 60 days to evaluate this software. The premium evaluation version can be turned into a full production version by entering in your purchased key or VL agreement, so there is no need for re-installation. Note: If you wish to go to the standard version, a reinstallation is necessary.
The 60-day evaluation period may be reset (re-armed) three times. This action extends the original 60-day evaluation period by up to 180 days for a total possible evaluation time of 240 days.
How to manually rearm the 60 day activation grace period
When the initial 60-day activation period nears its end, you can run the Slmgr.vbs script to reset it back to 60 days. To do this, follow these steps:
- Click Start, and then click Command Prompt.
- Type slmgr.vbs -dli, and then press ENTER to check the current status of your activation period.
- To reset the activation period, type slmgr.vbs -rearm, and then press ENTER.
- Restart the computer.
This resets the activation period to 60 days, and can be used up to three times. After this you will need to either activate or reinstall the evaluation.
