A cable release system includes a handle. An elongated base extends from the handle and includes a length that allows the handle to be held adjacent a cable connector distal end of a cable connector that is connected to a computing device while the elongated base extends adjacent the cable connector and an elongated base distal end of the elongated base is located adjacent a securing latch on the cable connector. An actuating member is located on the elongated base distal end of the elongated base and is configured to actuate the securing latch on the cable connector when the elongated base distal end of the elongated base is located adjacent the securing latch on the cable connector.
