Those uninstallers are designed by them to delete all files, drivers, services, and registry records left behind by the programs they produce. For instance, in the case of Panda it would be this one: [URL='https://www.pandasecurity.com/en/support/card?id=82011']How to uninstall Panda from the computer - Technical Support - Panda Security[/URL] So, what you're really asking is how Eset Av Removal compares with those tools. I don't know how to answer that. ART by itself doesn't make any changes to the computer. It doesn't try to delete AV files, drivers, registry keys, etc. I wouldn't touch that with a ten-foot pole 😁 It is portable and can run from a pen drive. It is a collection of dedicated uninstallers, grabbed from their official sources and regularly updated, that can also detect current and lots of past installations. This can be useful if you want to install a new antivirus, but in order to avoid possible conflicts, you want to remove as thoroughly as possible the one that is currently installed, as well as the leftovers of any others that had been installed in the past.
