Changing patio door lock

Have changed a few of these in the past by taking out screw in edge of door and sliding out the lock. In this case there is no apparent screw to remove. How does one remove the lock?

    Take the handle off and see if there’s another way of removing it - it might actually be the handle retaining it in position

    Update. The edge of the door was covered by a clip on cover. Once removed the normal screws are visible. Only challenge now is someone has silicone around the lock.

    Many thanks
