Remove Pella Screen Handle?

Question

My latch sheared off but appears to be the same one in the video from what I can see (83-115), but I want to remove it and measure to make sure. I can remove the screen protector (outside piece) but the inside handle doesn't have exposed screw heads. Is that inside handle finish something I can remove in order to access the screws to take the handle apart? If so, any advice how to do that without damaging the finish too much?

Yep, you can remove it. Do you see that circular Pella logo? You can usually pop those off with a screwdriver to access the screw.

It looks like yours may have been painted over, so it might be a little more difficult than that, but the screw is under there. You just have to get that logo off.
