Answer 1

Also very late to the party, but I just encountered this issue on VS2015 Community after reinstalling Windows, and managed to fix it without upgrading IE. On the right of the window where it shows the trial status there's an option to 'Check for updated licences', clicking on this and entering login information worked where the regular sign in window failed.

Answer 2

I encountered this issue with VS2015 Community on Windows 10. Due to the fact I was dual-booting linux, the system clock was set to UTC. Changing the clock back to local time made the problem go away.

Answer 3

I installed Internet Explorer 11 to make this work. I had removed IE in control panel and used Chrome only.

Answer 4

Updating my Internet Explorer from version 8 to 11 solved this Visual Studio issue for me. Note that you need to restart your computer before it actually takes effect.

Answer 5

@echo off
set _date=%DATE:/=-%
DATE DD/MM/YYYY
start devenv.exe
PING 1.1.1.1 -n 1 -w 10000 >NUL
DATE %_date%   

Change DD/MM/YYYY to date of install!

Answer 6

I had this same problem, where I was assigned a laptop at my job and it had a 30 day evaluation version that was expired. When I tired to sign in with my Microsoft account which is also for my MSDN subscription, I get this same error message.

SIGN IN failed CHECK FOR LICENSE failed also

However, using my MSDN subscription, I was able to obtain a product key, and applied that to Visual Studio, it fixed the error without having to sign in.
