The feel when you have unscrewed 19 out of 20 screws of your laptop and then the last one just decide to not get unscrewed just because it wants to screw you over.

I like the effort he is putting in to show us how to screw it off, and holding the camera at the same time..

If you look closely at his screw driver he is trying to use a hex screwdriver on a phillips head screw. That is the first reason it would not unscrew.

haha trying to unscrew ny laptop aswell

3:16 bruh

I had a small screw holding an a/c filter I needed to clean and I was beyond frustrated because the screw would not break free. So, I mixed up your suggestion, a tiny amount of canola oil and vinegar, I then used a cotton swab to apply the mixture to the screw. After a few minutes, and remembering to lefty loosey the screw came loose! Thank you SO much!

Your video helped me with my problem, you saved me from almost having a mental break down 😭😭🤣

for those people who check the comments before watching the video, vinegar works as well as kissing it so dont use vinegar

All that liquid going inside the machine no way am doing this to my laptop after maintaining it for 8 years! Lol

7 years later this is this so helpful! Thanks!

The screw became magically unscrewed during those 10 minutes of waiting for WD-40 effect? Because it does look a bit higher than before those 10 minutes :P.

It worked thank you I’ve been trying for hours I used a little bit of the olive oil cooking spray 👍🏽

2:18. You can see he pre-loosened it.

Thanks! I had 8 screws in the laptop that were too tight. I've dropped with needle the oil for sewing machines and left it for 30 minutes and it all unscrewed finally.

WD40 on a laptop isn't a good idea. I'd suggest using a soldering iron if you have no luck using an elastic band.

Thanks so much. I could not get the screws out of my Garmin Vivofit 2 with any of my small screwdrives until I tried your WD-40 trick. It worked perfectly !

Try looping dental floss around the screw & tug up as you unscrew.

My anxiety level when he was spraying that without an attachment near those open computer holes.....

The WD 40 is really good, just don't like mixing liquid with electrical items though

Thank you so much ♥️, you're a life saver. It broke my screw but it worked.

Omg that opening line is so apt. And I have that same set of multiple screws. I hope this video will end my misery

Thanks bro, so simple but I didnt even think of that....works

This video really helped me - THANKS DUDE!

You sound like Kermit the frog

Thanks I've always had trouble unscrewing laptop screws

Is he chewing gum at the start of the video? Sounds like he’s smacking and over salivating for like the first min. Was driving me crazy

I'm currently wanting to take the top off of my VCR so I can check the insides for dust, and the bolt is turning, but it won't come out. What do you recommend?

We have been here hours trying to get a screw out thank you so much

Since there is no dislikes on youtube now i can confirm this video is helpful

Does WD-40work on screws stuck in WOOD?

DONT spray the wd40 like the guy in the video, spray it in a cup or on paper or something then put a little drip onto the screw, liquid and circuits dont mix well together, sure it may not be conductive but it still isnt good for whatever device you are using

Will these substances affect the electronics? I'm doing it on a small slider phone

i was trying to unscrew my fpv goggles screw almost 1 week I finally unscrewed it md-40 works well thanks

when he is spraying the wd 40 look at his accuracy!🤣

Use silicon oil ONLY. All the others damages plastic (makes it soft like a rubber). Also it doesn't trigger corossion and is save for electrical eqipment.

Thanks a bunch for helping me loosen a screw!

Or you could try a PH1x4 screw 😐 if you dont have none of those i seen that the nail was rusty once i took it out no problem or idk this helps too 😊

What type vinegar do you use I only have the white vinegar at home, then you just pour it on the screw and let it sit for 10 minutes?

Thanks it worked. Was having issue with opening my macbook..this video was savior..tried the 4wd method and it worked like a charm. The trick is we neee to wait for minimum 10 to 15mins for the 4wd sprar liquid to do its magic.

Thank You!! Great video!!

I would recommend using a cotton ball or a Q-tip to rub the oil onto your surface

Huhuhu thank yoy for sharing about the vinegar. I was fixing my WH XM3 and there's this one tiny screw that just didn't move. Now I was able to make it work!

What about a small screw that's badly damaged at the head? Like as a kid I always used a knife on it, when I didn't have the right screwdriver.

Im tryna fix my old psp but the screws are stuck,will this method help?

thx, I am taking apart my dad´s phone and this really helped.

You are a life saver man, I was going mental. WD40 and some thread seal tape did it for me, you are the best 😊

This is so obviously fake. The second time you started the video, the screws already came off. BS!

Bro your the best my PlayStation hard drive would not unscrew and I needed to install a new One this helped so much

CEO of “WD-40””

I just see him scratching the shot out of that trying to get the screw out

So nervous because these screws are literally around my motherboard (I think? Idk much about the inside of computers, but here we are 🙃) but will maybe spray on a q-tip and apply? Something about free-spraying around the guts seems dangerous…

Holy Shit, the white vinegar worked in seconds. 😱. Thank you. Was tryna unscrew a nail that wouldn't budge in the washing machine.

I'm trying to open a ps3 controller and the screws are way in there so i cant get the flathead there so will it work w/o using it?

Thanks I’m trying to remove a screw in a bubble gun I found at target

Right now I have a Lenovo that the heatsink don't want to come out, but I'm really doubt to put wd 40, I'm need to be careful because has resistors and other things near the heatsink.

This dide literally sprayed at it loosed it up off camrera and was like that WD 40 HELPS A LOT

thank you very much.I use cooking oil and it works

I still can't get some screws or of my 3dr solo drone after using dw 40. what should I do now?

Thanks! I was going to give you thumbs down because I didn't think this would work. Guess what? Worked great!

Wd-fordy😂😂😂

Just put pressure on the top of the screw driver and the way your using that screw driver you don’t need one

Yay an excuse to use WD40 I love the smell

What if I use it for my heat sink screws? I don't wanna damage any electronics

what can you do for a ripped screw on the back of a PS4 controller

thank you so much

It worked well thanks man used dw 40

"I got the right size" and the bit keeps slipping, yea right. The fix = get better screwdrivers. Never had this problem with small electronics and I've been fixing them for 15 years. Rubberband thing might also work.

Ummm hmm. In an rpg my character after watching this would have -50 iq points.

Thanks so much it worked

“You know what they call cheese in Paris ?” “La fromage”

Effective..i just put a drop of multi purpose oil on a hole then after a minute..voila! Thanks!

I would want to use this. But sadly my tight screw is near my cpu,, which is directly near motherboard on laptop. So I can't do this technique for fear of ruining the board

Thanks a lot you nailed it!

Thank You Soooo Much,Your Are The Best

Watching this made me remember the simplest thing…just apply oil(lubricant). Duh. I was getting so frustrated till I saw t this easy fix. It worked. I was able to get the screw off my dryer back after applying some gun lube I had available. 😎

Mine is so tiny and I tried what you did but it didn't work

what about a damaged screw...any ideas?... there's one driving me crazy on my PS4 controller

Is harder to ubscrew than desktop?

ITS BEEN A HOUR AND I STILL CANT GET THE SCREWS OUT!!!

Actually worked for me without the oil or WD-40

Oh and put your screws in straight when u put them back in so u dont crossthread them and yall prolly wouldnt have this issue in the first place

"just use a little WD40 and use a small screw driver to take them out" Hi buddy, we know about WD40, but is there a better trick like this? Besides, a one word sentence like that you took about 7 minutes to explain it. What a teacher!

Would this work for my phones stripped screws ? 😦

Sprays wd40 inside laptop💀

the screw in trying to loosen cant be pried out, what do i do?

not the smoothest way to do that, but man, this thing of the flat screw driver saved me. thank you buddy.

I used the WD-40 and it broke my laptop lol

I’m just trying to clean my laptop but I can’t unscrew 3 of them

bullsh%t, it was unscrewed already after 10 min !! it was obvious !

Does it work on your siblings Nintendo switch cuz I really need to fix a stripped screw

The way he spray the WD makes me anxiety

Wait. So do all the liquids do the same thing? Well I’m gonna test it on my crappy olds 3ds so yeah I guess

I was trying to open my piano and got this idea😂🤣🤣finally

it works! thanks alot 😀

Thanks man. You just saved my guitar!!!

This helped im trying to fix a buzz lightyear

Thank you Mr.

This really worked and helped alot...even tho I didnt have wd-40
