Cooling paste/compound change

Hi! Ive been using my AMD Ryzen 5 2600 since this Christmas (2019, its been 6 months of hard using). Im going to buy a new PC case and CPU cooler. Do you think that the CPU wont be stuck on the cooler? I saw a lot of people having this kind of problem, that people removed them with CPU from locked socket. Can anyone help me, how to remove a cooler properly?

run the machine for a few minutes will soften the thermal material making it much easier to remove the cooler

I use arctic mx-4 which has been easy to use in my studio
