    Other than FULLY turning the bottom screw, which does nothing but either hug or push the cover away from the body, here are some instructions I hope you find helpful.
    Location of attachment points:
    BOTTOM:
    Measuring 1 centimeter from the bottom corner along the bottom edge on each side, you will find one plastic hook attached to the back case clipping onto the internal plastic frame. A very thin flat blade screwdriver should release it. Otherwise no other hooks or snags along the bottom.
    SIDES:
    This is where the real fun begins.
    Strangely the back cover has inset attachment points, instead of between the case edge and the screen.
    4 U-hook anchor points located at:
    1). Horizontally: 1.8cm in from the outside edge, Vertically: 7.8cm up from the bottom outside edge
    2). Horizontally: 1.8cm in from the outside edge, Vertically: 14.4cm up from the bottom outside edge
    3). Horizontally: 1.8cm in from the outside edge, Vertically: 19.5cm up from the bottom outside edge
    4). Horizontally: 1.8cm in from the outside edge, Vertically: 28.8cm up from the bottom outside edge
    These are the MOST difficult to disengage. Simply running a guitar pick or screwdriver or slidey bar between the edge and screen doesn’t work. In the past, I’ve been too gentle on the edges and like a surgeon separated the screen glass from the screen digitizer ruining the entire PC. My suggestion is to stick a screwdriver or a block of something inside the stand hole, between the cover and the body to keep up the pressure on the back case as you go along. Since there is nothing to release along the visual edges, you have to pull the bottom, slide along the side, relax, pull, slide, relax, technique along the bottom and edges until something eventually gives. Hopefully, it won’t be your patience. Fingernails are sometimes the best weapon.
    TOP:
    There are 8 cover plastic nibs spaced evenly along the top edge, 4 to the left and right of the camera slide switch. You might try inserting a very thin guitar pick along that edge. I didn’t because I was too afraid of killing another PC again. Getting the plastic cover away may be tricky. There are no delicate cables to worry about. You might get a string of rubber coming out from between the side edges but you can lightly glue them back, I used a slight brush of Elmers rubber glue.
    This is the worst case I’ve ever seen for repairs. The attachment points are way too hard and certainly not made to easily open. I would never suggest this PC because the next repair guy might have to buy you a new one out of his own pocket.
    Good luck friend, you're going to need it. 😄😉

    I don't trust the screw to remove the screen, last one of these I opened with that shattered the screen. Much prefer using panel tools around the edge

      DDR4 laptop memory (there is only one slot so you have to remove current memory; I removed my 4GB and replaced with 8GB) and the Drive is/needs to be a M.2 SSD PCIe 2280

    So, you can't upgrade the memory and the storage without loosing the warranty and probably it has single-channel RAM. That is a shame. Bad design.
