I want to replace the keyboard of my new Lenovo Thinkpad E590. I have been following this video for advice:

I know they are not the same model, but the design is basically the same. I unscrewed the screw in the back with a screwdriver covered in super glue. So I think the screw is as loose as can be. However, the keyboard is still stuck in the right side above where the screw connects to the keyboard. Has anyone else had similar problems with laptop keyboard replacement?

That screw shouldn't be covered in super glue... Is this a used laptop?

And just for completeness sake, you did remove the two screws behind the touchpad right and left clicks?

I covered the screwdriver in glue myself to be able to unscrew the screw all the way.

I have loosed the screws under the touchpad too. The only place where the keyboard is stuck is on the right side

According to this manual the bottom screw that acutally holds the motherboard in place is under the plastic cover on the bottom - https://ok2.de/media/ThinkPad/HMM/e590_hmm_en.pdf
