In a blog post, Microsoft explains how the program works: “We have a longstanding commitment to maximize product life, minimize waste, use more renewable resources, and improve the modularity, reparability, and recyclability of our devices—including our packaging. We are also working with our industry partners to make available more repair options that ensure the quality of repairs, safeguard consumer’s privacy and security, and help protect consumers from injury.” We will start by looking at the Surface Pro 7+, which previously had the Microsoft Surface Removal SSD available. Now, owners of the soon-to-be-replaced Surface flagship can get the hinged 2-in-1 Kickstand.

That same kickstand is also coming to the regular Pro 7, the Surface Pro X SQ2 and Pro X SQ1. Those two Surface Pro X devices as well as the Surface Pro 7+ are also getting the SSD door component. Microsoft also has new parts available for the Surface Laptop 3 and Surface Laptop 4, offering the AB-Cover display assembly and the C-Cover keyboard/trackpad assembly. You can see all the available components in the table below:   Tip of the day: Do you know that Windows 10 now has a package manager similar to Linux called “Winget”? In our tutorial, we show you how to install and use this new tool that allows the quick installation of apps via PowerShell or a GUI.
