    Hi, see: Activate an Office purchase or free offer on a new PC

    Microsoft 365 subscriptions:    If you see that a Microsoft 365 subscription is included on your device, be sure to sign in and start your subscription as soon possible. If you will not start your subscription within 180 days after Windows activated, it will expire. There is no such expiration date for the perpetual license products (such as Office 2024).

    Hello,

    Regarding the free trial, please try looking for an app called “Microsoft 365 Copilot” in the Windows 11 Start menu.

    Compared to the paid version it has some feature limitations, but it still provides access to the completely free web‑based Office apps through your browser.

    You can access them from the link below and use them by signing in with your Microsoft account.

    Within the free plan, any files you create in Office can be saved to OneDrive, and OneDrive offers up to 5 GB of storage at no cost.

    There are also subscription plans such as Microsoft 365 Personal, Microsoft 365 Family, and Microsoft 365 Premium,

    which include a one‑month free trial before switching to a paid plan.
