Hi Grant,

You won't be able to use the academic version license key to activate the
trial version.
You will need to uninstall the trial version first and then install the
academic version.
What customization have you made? Most of toolbar cusomization gets saved in
user profile which remains after uninstallation.

Regarding the question C), I have asked to the licensing team and will be
able to answer you on Monday.

Thanks,
Doehee
