But it turns out there's an officially supported way to turn that 30 day evaluation period into 120 days.You can "re-arm" the trial period for another 30 days, and do so up to 3 times. Here's how it works:
  1. Click on the start button and type "Cmd" into the Start Search box.
  2. Press Ctrl-Shift-Enter to open the command prompt.
  3. Type "slmgr -rearm" and hit enter.
  4. Reboot the computer.
  5. Make sure to re-arm the system again 29 or 30 days later.
