My watch band won’t release. I’ve tried multiple times to press the release button and slide the band off but it will not release.

One side of the band released without any problems. The other side won’t budge. Is there a way to get the band to release other than pushing down on the release button?

Windows, Windows 10

There is no other way to release the watch band except by pushing the release button. If you are having difficulty removing the band, I recommend that you take your Apple Watch to the Apple Store or an Authorized Service Center to get the band removed.
