Use a dropper and put a bit of rubbing alcohol at the edge of the back plate. Usually backplates have double sided tape installed for easier installation.

Backplates come in three flavors, Amd clip, corner screws, and pushpins. If it's an Amd clip, then it should be fine to leave and just get another hsf with an AMD clip. Corner screws should be ok as well. If it's a pushpin, get rid of it and never ever buy pushpins again.
