I downloaded the Office 2016 Technical Preview via Microsoft Connect and installed it successfully, but now it asks me for activation. I tried logging in with my Microsoft account using which I signed up for Microsoft Connect account and downloaded Office 2016 Preview. What should I do now? It says that, if the product isn't activated then, my subscription will expire by March 24, 2015.
Some people say that, "I need a valid Office 365 subscription to activate the Office 16 Technical Preview". Is that true? Do I need to a valid Office 365 account to activate Office 2016 Technical Preview?
