Finally opened it, I use pliers and spin it CCW. Crushed an SSD capacitor while opening it due to my incompetence. Luckily the SSD is the one I wanted to change

You’ll need to cut a new slot in the stub if it still has some height using this: Screw Slot Files
From the image its hard to tell if you snapped off the screws head or not.
If you snapped off the head and its flush with the threaded stand off you’ll need to get a left twist drill and using a reverse drill carefully drill the screw out.
In either case you’ll need to take the battery out and carefully mask off the area so the metal filings don’t short out your logic board.

Hello. There are few things I can think of…it’s hard to see the pic,but have you tried or thought about using a star but screw driver or flat head to rig it? If the black ring is just a piece of plastic(plastic nut),can you carefully crack it?
worse comes to worse,maybe super glue,and glue the screw driver in the hole of the screw. Then after it sets,carefully turn it. It should work on something that small…it’s judt holding the network card in place…

If it ain`t worth it then forget about it or break the cover to replace the battery and duct tape it back or go through it again and make more damage with crazy glue the first time. This day and age? Crazy glue something you`ll have to open Again?! I used crazy glue 20 years ago for something I really needed and you actually think I would now break that bond? Not to replace a battery or I wouldn`t use crazy glue to start with. There you go Crazy Glue,:) Hide your collectables in Crazy Glue! Now, where is the real answer to this dilemma?
