Yes, it is possible to reverse a house design on the vertical axis in Bentley MicroStation for Windows. To do this, you can use the mirror command, which allows you to flip or reverse elements in the design. Simply select the elements you want to reverse, activate the mirror command, and choose the appropriate mirror axis to achieve the desired reversal.
The answer to the question is that you can check the taskbar at the bottom of the screen to see if the file is open. If it is, you can choose to overwrite it.

As far as I know, trial for this application is approved after you contact the developers. However, it appears there is a direct download URL accessible on Software Informer page: http://bentley-microstation.software.informer.com/download/
Access the page and wait a little, the download will start automatically. I have downloaded and installed the package, and it had no viruses or any other kind of malware. If you look at the URL, you'll see it belongs to Bentely itself.
I followed instructions given on Bentley for downloading Microstation and I installed Bentley's live Player and then followed instructions for launching MicroStation.
Then I installed Live Player and downloaded this file: Bentley+MicroStation+V8i+Try%2FB-50559234-2305-45FF-B6BC-6942F38E745A (1).tok
So I don't know what I should do because it's not working in that Live Player either I cannot open it.
Please, someone tell me what to do with that tok file or where I can download MicroStation.

You have probably downloaded something else because MicroStation is provided as a Windows installer, a simple package that is required to be launched as Administrator then all you have to do is follow the installation instructions. You can request a trial from the official website. However, you should also contact the support team. Since there is no information on the web regarding a TOK file's installation, the developers should give you all the details, especially if you are a customer.

To find the location of cells already in a MicroStation dgn file, you can use the Locate Cell tool. This tool can be found in the Cell tab of the Ribbon menu. Simply click on the Locate Cell tool and then click on the cell you want to find. The cell will be selected and highlighted in the view window and its location will be displayed in the Locate Cell dialog box.
