But when I register for trial, it points me back to update 2 😞
What you have registered for earlier ? This happen when you downloading product/updates other than of products registered for.
Same error for me,but I downloaded registering with new ID. I think you will have to register with new ID.

No 100% sure, but I think that the trial is available only for the latest version available and where you see Update 2 I think is for vSphere 6 (that is the latest version of vSphere), not the vSphere 5.5. Can you confirm ?
