    Hi,
    As above, how do you remove a key on a Samsung keyboard without causing damage to it.

    Usually it is a matter of removing the screws marked "K" on the bottom of the computer and then releasing the latches that are usually along either the front or back edge. Use a small screwdriver to push each latch back into the chassis while, at the same time, slightly lifting the keyboard. Start with the middle latch.

    Once you have found and released the latches then lift that edge of the keyboard sufficient to be clear of the chassis, then slide it to release tabs along the opposite side. Then flip over to access the ribbon cable.
