How to remove sticky keys

Generally speaking, the trick is to work from the top and use a longer nail or a tool like a spudger. I usually use my nails because I keep them a little long for situations like this, but if it was a client system (or something like my MSI where a nail doesn’t really work), I’d use a spudger. This is often easier said then done, though so take your time.

These photos were taken with a Dell notebook, but the steps are very similar amongst most systems. I usually deal with Dell because a lot of enterprise scrap tends to be Dell hardware, but don’t think that because I used common enterprise scrap doesn’t mean this doesn’t work on other brands as well.
