All bathtubs in my house, you have the screws in close step back and drain the tub. My bathtub drain is still slow because (the hair short and I have long hair, stop) to. I remove the cap. Who knows how? I unscrew and remove the slide, but I can not the real stopper out. I’ve tried and tried to unscrew. I even tried to open a large screwdriver. There must be some “trick” to remove them.

Try it counter-clockwise when the cap top. It should unscrew.
Clamp in a vise grip pliers and yanked it out!
Once you have the cover and seal the cartridge with a slot for a large screwdriver in it. Screw it. Remove the hair from the body of the plug and reinstall.
