So my VS12 version has expired as I didn't enter my free serial key... and now I cant even load it up to enter in a key! Any ideas?

This may help: "in order to update the product key you need to be logged on with administrator privileges. Try logging on as an admin and the go to the control panel > uninstall/change a program > Enter the product key > click "upgrade." "

Thanks Volker, I'll give it a go tonight... you would have thought a dialog would have appeared when trying to launch the app to enter the key!

I still couldnt find that option, so I uninstalled it last night... hopefully when I reinstall tonight it'll let me enter in a key!!! [Edit - yep that worked... totally uninstall and reinstall, on the "first" run it let me enter the key]
