How to Remove a Hori Screen Protector

A HORI Screen Protective Filter, also known as a HORI screen protector, is a piece of plastic film used as a barrier between a video game console LCD screen and a stylus, to prevent dust or other particles from scratching or denting the screen. Sometimes the protector isn't aligned properly during installation, dust or other debris becomes trapped beneath the protector, or the protector becomes damaged from heavy or harsh usage. Any of these scenarios then requires removal of the screen protector to clean the screen/screen protector or to replace the protector.
