Computer manufacturers often install a trial version of Microsoft Office.
If you are getting a prompt to type in a Product Key when opening a Microsoft Office program,
it s likely the trial period is over and you'll need to purchase a license (product key) for Microsoft Office.
The product key affixed to your computer is for Windows Vista (the operating system) and not for Microsoft Office.
