The trial version allows creating a pending operation, but it asks for a license code to apply the real operation. 
 
There are 2 main scenarios that you will be prompted to purchase the product after applying the operation.
 
1. You are using the trial version to test the product.
The trial version can not perform any real operation. If you really want to resize the partition for free, please reinstall the Free version on a non-server computer, instead of the trial version.
