I tried to put a Wi-Fi card in but the screw didn’t fit. I noticed an orange film over the hole and managed to take it off with a toothpick. I’m not sure if there was a protective layer there. Should I go ahead and screw it in? Thanks!

Remove the film to avoid debris entering the threads during installation on the board.
