Simply close Word and any other Office programs that may be running, such as
Outlook, Excel, etc. and then start them again as you would normally. You
should not need to reboot your computer for activation to occur.
However, please be aware that you should uninstall the trial version of
Office _before_ installing the full version. Otherwise, the full version may
not activate properly. If you have already installed the full version, you
may need to uninstall it, uninstall the trial version, and then re-install
the full version.
