    Thanks all for the helping and provide me some useful links. I successfully enable Fabric trial this morning suddenly when I try to change the workspace type, although I did not do anything else.

Hi kenlinpa ,

Thanks for sharing this.

To create a Lakehouse you will first need a Fabric trial or access to a Fabric enabled workspace.

since you mentioned that the Start trial option isn't enable and creating a Lakehouse also fails when it attempts to upgrade to fabric trial, could you please confirm following-

1. Are you using work account or personal accout?

2. is the start trial option missing completely, or is it visible but disabled?

3. Do you see any specific errror message when cretaing the lakehouse?

If you are using a work/school account , it may worth checking with your Fabric/Power BI admin whether Fabric trial is enabled for your tenant, as tenent setting can control wheter user are allowed to start a Fabric trial.
