Removing Bathtub Stopper

Hi, I want to remove my bathtub stopper. It is a pop-up type that seals
the drain when pushed down. It seems to spin freely and does not seem to
want to come out when pulled hard. How does it come out?
Thanks
This is how mine is, yours may be different....
Pull the stopper up and spin it around while looking down under the
stopper... down inside the drain. Look for a screw going horizontally
into the center shaft. Hard to see unless you crouch down in the tub
with your face laying on the bottom of the tub. Once you know where it
is you can loosen the screw and remove the stopper without looking. Only
loosen the screw enough to let the stopper slide off.
Then use some needle nose pliers to pull up all the hair and coagulated
soap scum.
