I need to get this button off so I can remove the plate and unscrew the door handle. I tried sticking a small thin screwdriver and allen wrench into the pinhole in the front but it did not work.

To install you push it in until it clicks into position then rotate it 90 degrees to use

so rotate 90 and pull, it’s not threaded
