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)

    Thanks so much for all your help. My problem is that everything worked but then all of a sudden, it locked up. I changed proof.en file back “neverInstall” to “AlwaysInstall” and uninstalled the entire Office suite. I installed the Home and Student Suite again but it is still locked. I did removed the Product ID as well and Digital Product ID as well as put the proof file back to neverInstall. Still locked. Can you please help me asap?

    I couldn’t believe it worked so easily, Here’s a trial evaluation key, maybe using this in conjunction with the registry editing helps.

    I’m just wondering if it’s going to freeze in a few days time like people have been saying?

    I also turn back the date on the pc,this has helped with quite a few programs when the expiry date runs out.

    OFFICE 2007 = GM3C4-HQQJV-4TQMX-3R8CP-G928Q

    XP PRO = B4VFV-4JBBM-P9FTT-JF68J-299Y3

    Are you kidding?????????? What do you think has been happening to the rest of us?? This is an article telling you how to get around the greying out of the headings. If you read them all it, and follow the instructions, it should work, after all it has worked for at least 67 of us. We can not come and do it for you.

    The guy who wanted help in slot 56. Know how you feel. To get rid of office completely to do a completely new install this is what I did. I downloaded a program called “windows installer clean up” from microsoft. Used it. Then I went to the registry and removed entirely the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Registration\{90120000-0030-0000-0000-0000000FF1CE
    Key. I then opened the Office folder and removed everything. Office was then completely off my system. It worked fine for me no problems, but unless you know what you are doing I would not fiddle with the registry. :)
    Please let us know if you had any luck. Not saying if it did or did not work is just as annoying as ………”and not just write i have the same problem too.” Good luck. Looking forward to hearing what happens!

    On vista.. This hack will NOT work. Although if you happen to have access to a computer which has XP.. If you edit it on XP then replace the file on vista with the edited file from XP then it will work just like it said it would.

    The hack does work but if you open documents from hard disk it will automaticaly revert to expired version so you must avoid that by always opening documents from file open

    you will not have any problem in activating office 2007 if and only if you download from torrent or other p2p software. if you download from torrent then they are already activated. you can use btjunkie.org and use utorrent.
    i am using office 2007 enterprise. it is pre activated.

    DOWNLOAD FROM TORRENT
