Hi, I got a used laptop from an family member. It did have this this annoying sticker on it (see picture). Apparently for years already.
So, how can I remove it without scratching the metal body or leaving residue behind?

I think you forgot to add the picture :(
But, I assume it’s one of those super annoying ones. I’d say carefully peel all you can, then Goo Gone is your friend :)
I’d just peel it off and maybe rub it with my finger to get rid of leftover adhesive.
Removing those is a war crime.
I’d use ipa to break down the glue or at a pinch some hand sanitiser and a cloth to get rid of stickers.
A plastic ice scraper will help get the bulk off, then you can get a variety of solvents for removing any residue. If it is metal then it should be fine with most solvents but check the instructions and do a test patch somewhere discreet to be sure.
