    "There are a number of screws on the bottom that required to be removed prior"

    That's a very unhelpful step! What are they and which ones?!? I'm following two YouTube videos that show this stage and both have a single screw that holds the keyboard im place which my N5010 simply doesn't have. So my keyboard is held in place and I can't lift it.

    Melvyn, I agree. This not up to iFixit's standards.

    I have only discovered one screw that releases the keyboard. It is under the RAM access panel

    Some versions of this model have a bit of double-sided sticky tape that holds down the left side of the keyboard quite firmly. If you are sure you have removed all of the screws from the back of the laptop then gently pull up up the keyboard keeping it as flat as possible until it unsticks. No idea why they would do that when there are screws holding it down but it is what it is.

    It was also only the one screw for me, and no double-sided tape. I had to use a small flathead screwdriver to gently pry up the right corner of the keyboard while holding the closest tab in with the flat end of a spudger.
