Product: HP Pavilion Notebook - 15-p213cl
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I am trying to disassemble my laptop in order to change out the fan, however, removal of the optical drive is presenting a problem.  After removing all screws from the bottom of the computer, the optical drive is still attached.  Please advise as to what is still holding it in place.  Many thanks.  PattyB3
