Superglue stuck into USB port

b.1

The plastic and metal parts of the USB reciever from my wireless mouse were constantly breaking apart in the last couple of days. As a result, I decided to glue them with suprtglue. I thought the glue had dried, so I connected it back into my computer. However, an hour ago, I tried to get the USB reciever out from the port of my laptop, but I couldn't do so. How can I solve this problem?

If possible remove the shroud of the receiver, hope the usb didn't fry from having literal undried superglue on it, then use acetone (any kind of nail polish remover) on a toothpick or if the superglue is not that strong do a cotton swab, and just avoid touching the usb pins while doing so (if you feel comfortable).

I edit my messages more than not –

Probably some dude on the internet
