Default Remove caulk around tile floor in bathroom

I have caulk around the tile floor I installed in a bathroom. I don't
remember what kind. Probably about 5 years old and hard to the
touch. I have tried a razor knife, dremel tool, some kind of "caulk
remover solvent", nothing will touch this stuff. Any magic out there?

Wow, I thought 5in1 tool, but you said razor knife. I thought caulk
softener, but you said 'caulk remover solvent'. I thought power
tools, but you said dremmel. I wish you knew what caulk this is,
since I'm interested in using it.

Have you tried heating it up, safely! Then using a 5-in-1 tool/puddy
knife to try and unseat it. Maybe if you unseat enough of it you can
pull it out like rope. Just a guess. Not there.
