Removing drawers on sliders from executive desk

How can a drawer be removed (to take desk apart) from the sliders? We have tried unscrewing the slider, but there is a screw that remains hidden by the drawer at the front of the slider. Not sure if there is a release mechanism that we are missing.

Appreciate any advice!

Hi, lywalker!

It would be helpful to have some additional information from you in order for us to help you the best here.

For instance: Is this a wooden or metal desk? If you can find out, what is the brand name of the desk and how old is it?

Thanks!

Some ways are:

1. Release mechanism
2. Pull full out and lift
3. Pull hard
4. No release mechanism at all

Post a pic of the slide with the drawer fully extended using "Go advanced".

In addition to KISS's comments, I've seen some where the Chinese factory worker had no idea of what to do and put in excess screws that must be removed before any of the following worked. But normally, it's one of the below.
