upvc window handle

Hello all. 

Trying to tighten handles of upvc windows. It’s easy enough to remove the screw cover and tighten the screw here (picture 1),


but how do I access the screws when the handle looks like this (picture 2)?

Thank you!

    Is it not a screw head painted over and still visible in the second photo?

    Is there also one "hidden" behind the handle.

    Turning the handle through 90 degrees might reveal something

    Thanks, team. Problem solved. You have to push in the catch and slide the plastic cover to the side to reveal the screws. Appreciate your help.
