What happens here

On the back side of the blind's top rail, you will locate three Phillips head screws. These screws secure the blind to its mounting brackets. Using your Phillips head screwdriver or a drill with a Phillips head bit, loosen each of these screws approximately halfway. It is critically important not to completely remove these screws. If they are fully taken out, a small internal plastic piece, which is essential for holding the blind in place, could fall out, significantly complicating the reinstallation process.

Goal: Partially loosen mounting screws to release the blind without losing parts.
