How can we expand the 2010 RTM office trial period up to 180 days

Almost 2 years ago I told you about the possibility of up to almost 1 year. On the same principle (ie that of rearmament), Microsoft Office users who have decided to test Office 2010 pot expand the trial period its up to 180 days, re-assigning it every 30 days (re-renaming Office 2010 can be performed by maximum 5 times, the original files of the suite are not affected by its commands).

Because the Microsoft Office 2010 rearging process is a little more complicated than the Windows 7 cooling process is much easier if the order execution is done through a script (file .bat). To create this script open an Notepad and copy the lines below:

@echo off
color C
mode con: cols=73 lines=3
title OfficeRearm5
SET file=%SystemDrive%OfficeRearm5.bat
IF EXIST %file% attrib -h %file% 
echo @echo off >>%file%
echo "C:Program FilesCommon Filesmicrosoft sharedOfficeSoftwareProtectionPlatformOSPPREARM.EXE" >>%file%
attrib +h %file%
schtasks /create /tn "Rearm2" /tr %file% /sc daily /mo 30 /RL HIGHEST /f
"C:Program FilesCommon Filesmicrosoft sharedOfficeSoftwareProtectionPlatformOSPPREARM.EXE"
pause

Save the file under the name InstallOR5, then change the extension from .txt in .bat

On the last day of the period of trial Office 2010 (ie on the 30th day after installing the suite) Execute the file InstallOR5.bat (Careful! It must be run with administrator rights!).

It will create another .bat - file OfficeRearm5.bat - on the system partition, which will be performed automatically every 30 days, extending the trial period with yet 150 days.

After the 180 days of trial is completed, it is recommended to Uninstall the rearm script. Open again an Notepad, and copy the rows below:

@echo off
color C
mode con: cols=69 lines=2
title OfficeRearm5
SET file=%SystemDrive%OfficeRearm5.bat
IF EXIST %file% attrib -h %file%
del %file% 
schtasks /delete /tn "Rearm2" /f
pause

Name the file UninstallOR5 and change the extension from .txt in .bat. executed UninstallOR5.bat to uninstall the automatic rearmament script (office.5.bat).

Note: Before creating the rearm script, make sure you have .NET Framework 3.5 or 4.
