It's important to use this with caution and only when ESET fails to install on your system because of incompatibilities. The safest method is directly from Uninstall programs list of Windows and not even by a 3rd party uninstaller. Or am i mistaken?

Yep, the priority is to uninstall with uninstaller build in (or downloaded tool from official vendor) first. But if uninstallation is corrupted or something unexpected happens, this tool may help...
