You'd better buy Microsoft Office legally and spend some bucks!
Check your laptop specifications:

As you see, Microsoft Office is sold separately.

What you SHOULD have been told is that the version of MS Office that comes preloaded is a TRIAL version -- and since that version will expire, it can NOT be activated.
You would have to purchase it if you want to keep using it after the trial period expires -- as that can not be extended.
