Phone activation;

slui 4

may be an option. You can also try getting a new different key, otherwise I think you'll need to submit a case here with subscription support.

Answer 3

It may also be that Visual Studio product keys are constrained to using the Visual Studio distribution media. Subscription support should be able to confirm this one way or another.

or also contact the activation center directly.

Answer 5

Hi,

To continue using Visual Studio after a trial period ends, unlock it with an online subscription or a product key.

You may refer to the following link for details:

As Dave said, if you need a definite answer you'd better contact the activation center directly.

Best Regards,
