How to remove stripped laptop screw? - eviltoast

I stripped this screw in my laptop and as such can’t open the back cover to replace parts.

Things I’ve tried: -Different size/type screwdrivers -Rubber band -Hammer -Hot glue gun

Edit: got it unsuck. Thanks everyone for the advice

    Since it’s just one screw, I’d find a matching sized bit for the other screws and carefully drill it out. Then replace it with another screw a bit larger. Or just leave it open, cases tend to snap together and the screws are just to make sure it doesn’t pop open.
