If you can't find the slot, then get a s***w extractor which has a barb type bit which will grab the metal of the s***w and remove it.

Answer 6

Answer 7

Never saw the question, but to tighten a right hand thread, turn clockwise, to remove counter clockwise. Just the reverse if left handed threads.

If you can't move it one way, try the other direction.

If it seems to be frozen in place, just tap the end of screwdriver handle while trying to turn.
