Most likely links:

TestDisk - partition table repair (attempt)    https://www.cgsecurity.org/
Photorec - scavenger                           https://www.cgsecurity.org/
Recuva   - UnDelete                            https://www.ccleaner.com/recuva

CleanMgr - Win10, backport to Win7             (Part of OS)
          - Excels at deleting Windows.old
          - But could delete your Downloads

Piriform was bought out, Recuva likely still supported by its author,
not really sure.
