Vertical blinds

I posted about this in the past but still can't make it work. As silly as it sounds I am unable to remove my vertical blinds from the window. Most of YouTube tutorials show blinds fixed using brackets or a screw in the middle of a metal fixing at the front.
Mu blinds have completely different mechanism I can't work out. I kept pushing metal fixings and literally nothing moves.

First pull blinds up to top. referring to your pic no. 1 : see the right hand bit of bracket? pull that catch outwards and left (use a screwdriver/pliers to start it if necessary). As you can see on last 2 pics it swivels on the bracket. depending on length of blind, you may have 2/3/4 brackets. if 3 or more, release 2 outer ones first, then middle one/s last. If 2, one end first then taking weight with one hand, release final catch to release - it's not heavy. You might need to twist blind forward a little. replacement is simply reverse process.1

Pull this lever towards you. This releases the curtain rail from the bracket.

In my experience you may find it hard to move the lever and might need to lever it with a screwdriver wrapped in cloth to stop you scraping the paint off the front panel0

Pull the lever towards you and it will twist out.0
