Ah, is it a hammer strike one? They’re good for machine screws etc that need “cracked” but less good for tight wood screws. If someone can lend you an 18v cordless impact driver, it’ll make a world of difference. I’d offer to help, but I’m a little far north unfortunately.
Failing that, dig out around the end of the screw, and use the jaws of the Chuck to remove the screw.

The bits with this driver are a larger diameter, so my usual bits wouldn't fit as they're loose in the driver. Matt mentioned this would be the case when I collected it.
The reviews online, and that video, show the tool works fine. I'm certain it is my incompetentce that is the limiting factor.
I only needed to remove appx 80 shelf screws and i've not managed to shift 45 of them, for the time I've spent around this today I'm at over 15 mins per screw.
