How to Unscrew Triwing screws with a normal screwdriver

I just used a phillips screwdriver, with a point that got small enough to fit in the middle of the triwing screw. It had a reinforced tip. You can tell its reinforced because it has a small change in color at the tip. But heres how to do it:
Spoiler:
Push with medium-hard force while turning left. :P
Works great and doesnt mess up the screw, console, or screwdriver! :D

EDIT: picture of screwdriver
