Help can't install SSD (self.framework)

I just got my Framework 16 DIY version and I can’t install the primary SSD because there is a captive screw in the place that holds the SSD down and I can’t remove it so the SSD doesn’t stay held down. There is a screw for the secondary SSD and it comes out. Any ideas?

Update: I got it out, anyone else with this issue, try and pull the screw out it’s very small on the threads so it just pulls out and pushes back in when the drive is seated.

Glad to hear! out of curiosity, is there anything else bothering you about it?

As for the hardware no problems at all. I installed Ubuntu on one drive with no problem but Windows is a bitch to install.
