Trial versions of the Microsoft Money software
The trial versions of Money are available from the Microsoft downloads site. For convenience, these are also referenced from the
trial downloads page on this site.
The current versions of Money, where trial versions exist, are Microsoft Money Plus for the US and 2007 for Japan. In other regions, for example, the UK, France and the International English, there are no trial versions available any more.
The trial download is free. You can use it for between 30 and 90 days, depending on the version provided for the region you have. In addition, there is usually an expiry date on the software, which is around 15 months after the release of the application. If you need to use a trial version where this expiry date has past, then you can use it by changing your PC date settings before use. This is also something you will need to do if you are upgrading a retail version via an intermediate trial version (for example, [[294]). Note that this probably doesn't work if you have tried the trial already.
The trial version is usually the 'deluxe' version. However, with the Money Plus release, Microsoft have provided a trial of the 'home and business' software too.
If you proceed to purchase Money, please come back here and use a 'Buy Now' picture to the right or go to the
product viewer and buy through that system. Even if you don't, I would advise against getting a downloadable version directly from Microsoft, unless you have secure storage or the physical media. Having the physical disk helps you reinstall as required and you have the piece of mind of a physical backup of the software [131]].
