Microsoft Free Trial

[GDB17]

I have recently bought a HP laptop, I was offered a free trail for Microsoft, I continued setting up the laptop without setting up the free trial. I am ready to go ahead with the free trial; how do I do this now the laptop has been set up?

@GDB17, Welcome to HP Support Community. 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you. 
Congratulations on your new HP laptop! 🎉

If you skipped setting up the Microsoft 365 free trial during the initial setup, no worries, you can still activate it. Here’s how you can do it:

Open Microsoft Word, Excel, or PowerPoint:

• Click on the Start Menu and search for Word (or Excel/PowerPoint).
• Launch the app, it will prompt you to sign in or activate Office.

Sign in with your Microsoft Account:

• If you don’t have one, you can create a free account at https://signup.live.com.

Choose the Free Trial Option:

• When prompted, select the “Try for free” or “Start 1-month free trial” option.
• Follow the on-screen instructions to activate the trial.

Enter Payment Details (Optional):

• Microsoft may ask for payment details to start the trial. You won’t be charged until the trial ends, and you can cancel anytime before that.

Complete Activation:

• Once done, your Microsoft 365 apps will be fully functional for the trial period.

I hope this helps. 

Take care and have a good day.
