Hack to Activate Microsoft Office 2007 Evaluation Trial Version

Most suites or programs of Microsoft Office 2007 allows user to evaluate the product. The trial version of 2007 Microsoft Office system can be installed by using a 25-character trial product key available from Microsoft while you download the free Office software, and you can use the Microsoft Office 2007 suite or program with full functionality for 60 days.

You may have the Office 2007 CD and are able to install Office 2007 without entering product key. However, Office 2007 will work in reduced functionality mode, where it’s effectively just a viewer for Office documents. Beside, if you forget the trial product key, or don’t wish to register a Windows Live ID to get the trial key, here’s the trick to activate Office 2007, or more correctly, bypass the activation of Office 2007 60 days trial, and making the “trial” word disappear from the Office title at the top and suppress activation and trial expiry prompt.

Note that to use Microsoft Office 2007 beyond 60 days trial period, you need to purchase a valid license for it, available from Amazon or most computer retail store.

To use this hack to crack activation on Office 2007, you need to install Office 2007 without any serial number or product key. If you have installed Office 2007 with a product key or serial number, do the following to clean remove Office 2007 of product key:

  1. Close all Microsoft Office applications.
  2. Run Register Editor by clicking on Start -> Run, and then type “regedit” in the Open box and press Enter key.
  3. Navigate to the following registry key:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Registration

    Note that inside the registry key, there should be another subkey that resembles the following:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Registration\{90120000-0030-0000-0000-0000000FF1CE

    or

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Registration\{91120000-0011-0000-0000-0000000FF1CE

  4. If there is more than one registry entries or subkeys that reference Microsoft 12.0 registration, open up each subkey, and then identify the product by the ProductName value data until you locate the subkey for the product which you want to remove the existing product license key.

    For example:

    ProductName=Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2007
    ProductName=Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007

  5. Once found the correct registry subkey, delete the following values:

    DigitalProductID
    ProductID

  6. Close Registry Editor.

Once Microsoft Office 2007 has been installed with no product key, proceed with the following steps:

  1. In Windows Explorer, brose to the following folder:

    C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE12\Office Setup Controller\Proof.en\

  2. Right click on Proof.XML file, select “Open With…” in the right click menu.
  3. In the “Open With” window, select Notepad to be used to open the XML file. In Vista, if you can’t see the Notepad option, simply double click the “Other Programs” to unhide it.
  4. Scroll down to the bottom of the Proof.XML to locate the following lines:

    </Feature> <Feature Id=”SetupXmlFiles” Cost=”1248″>
    <OptionRef Id=”AlwaysInstalled”/>
    </Feature>

  5. Change the AlwaysInsalled to neverInstalled so that the line looks like following:

    <OptionRef Id=”neverInstalled”/>

  6. Save the Proof.xml file. In Windows Vista, you may need to take ownership and grant full access permission to yourself before able to modify the file.
  7. You can now launch Microsoft Office 2007 application such as Word, Excel, Powerpoint, Outlook and etc without prompting for activation.

As usual, as it’s a hack, and before you purchase a valid product key for it, you won’t be able to AND can’t access any updates or Microsoft Office Online.

Note: The hack may work for 60 days only. To make this hack fully working, try to delete additional file below, probably has to be deleted every two months:

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\OFFICE\DATA\opa12.dat

Or,

C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\OFFICE\DATA (for Windows 7 and Vista)

    For office 2007 versions, i guess everybody should go for enterprise edition… to make it real GENUINE, just follow the first 6 steps above. and you have to download for MSOffice2007keygen.exe plus the extra instructions, if you follow it correctly… voila!!! you now have a genuine copy of office 2007 – it’s activated and you can download updates, it will surely pass office validation… wan’t the keygen and instructions? just e-mail me at nyghell@yahoo.com

    Okay I tried that hack and the activation windows stops to appear. But :

    Word 2007 cannot be used (locked).
    Excel 2007 cannot be used (locked).

    Here’s how to be able to use Excel 2007 after applying this hack :

    Install Visual basic 6.
    Open an Excel 2007 document from Visual basic 6 (you’ll easily find this kind of source code on the web so I won’t duplicate that here, too easy, don’t be a lamer pleaaaazzzzz).
    Then when you run your vb6 code, an excel 2007 document will open, and the cells inside it will not be locked !!!!! ;) ;) ;)
    The same does not work with Word 2007… (well, I don’t have the solution for now!).

    Let’s use softwares dealed by these capitalists ! Or try to use OpenOffice :) :) :)

    JAH RASTAFARI !

    I’m afraid I’m experiencing the same situation. The hack worked for some time (although I’m not really sure it did, beacuse nothing changed except it didn’t say “trial” at the top of office applications) and then office went into read-only mode. Is there anything I can do?

    i haven’t had any problems as of yet, but from the sound of some people’s comments, they had problems, that you were able to fix. i was wondering if you would be able to send me a copy of whatever instructions you sent them, that way i have a reference if i encounter problems in the future. thanks!

    The hack works only for few days, then Office 2007 will lock you out, leaving it in read only mode. Do you have a real hack…. – one that works? if u do send it 2 my email sly306@hotmail.com

    Yes it does work….but the Proof.en hack fails after a while. even though it does not say trial anymore it still acts as a trial. The full version goes away.

    PRM,

    When you write “Had to reverse all steps to regain functionality. Well it was a hack at the end of the day.”, can you explain a little bit more?

    Only change NeverInstalled by AlwaysInstalled?
    But Office asks for a key!

    Help, please :-)
