I was recently given a Dell laptop as a gift from my son. Microsoft Office Professional was included but it did require the registration with the 25 number product key code for activation. Unfortunately, the piece of cardboard that contained the number was inadvertently thrown out and now that I need to use MS Office, I'm locked out. What can I do? |
MS Office Pro came installed but after 30 days it locked me out due to the lack of activation with the product key code (done online). I just need the key. |
Will this program display a key that was never entered?

good point, thats right the trial version's require you to type in the product key. what a retarted way of doing it  either way they won't help him.  the best thing to do if you have a son or daugther thats a student is to buy the student teacher version of office. around $129 |
It has a 30 day free trial. You have to BUY a license to continue using it. Sucks, eh? |
They threw away the Product Activation Code. It was apparently purchased with the laptop. |
