Visual Studio is expired the Account Settings dialog will open automatically for the license to be added. Otherwise, go to File > Account Settings and manually add the subscription key.
To make sure that the user that's being used to start Bamboo service is able to see the license, you have to log in with that user before adding the license to Visual Studio.
