Uninstall Disk Drill cleanly
Every guide on this tells you to hunt for the product code with Get-WmiObject or in the registry. You do not need to: it is published in the installer manifest, and it is printed below.

Uninstall, with the usual prompts
msiexec /x {a42fd332-6421-48b7-b8d5-0e31388e4555}Silent, for deployment
msiexec /x {a42fd332-6421-48b7-b8d5-0e31388e4555} /qn /norestartThe product code changes with every version
The codes above belong to Disk Drill 6.3.1398.0, the version in our index. If you have an older release installed, its code is different and this command will report that the product is not installed. In that case run Get-Package -Name "Disk*" in PowerShell to read the code of what you actually have.
This removes the program as the publisher packaged it. Settings and files created after installation, typically under AppData, are deliberately left behind by the uninstaller and have to be deleted by hand if you want them gone.
Reinstalling and hitting error 1638? That is this same product code, and the command above is the fix.

How we scored this 100 out of 100
| Signal | Finding | Points |

| SHA-256 hash published | 1 of 1 installers ship a SHA-256 hashWithout a published hash there is no way to prove the file you downloaded is the file the publisher built. | 30 / 30 |
| Binary provenance | 1 on the publisher's own domainThe strongest signal against a repackaged installer: the file should come from the publisher, not from a mirror nobody vouches for. | 35 / 35 |

Is Disk Drill safe to download?
Yes, in the sense we can actually verify: the installer downloads from cleverfiles.com, which is a domain we have tied to CleverFiles.
The installer on this page comes with the SHA-256 CleverFiles declared, so you do not have to take our word for it: hash the file you downloaded and compare.
What this does not tell you is whether the software itself is any good, or whether you want what it does once installed. A publisher can ship something you would rather not run and the download is still authentic. We answer the question we can measure and leave the other one to you.
If Windows says “Windows protected your PC” when you run it, that is SmartScreen reporting reputation, not a malware verdict — it shows up on perfectly legitimate software from small publishers and on releases that are simply new. The reverse matters more: no warning does not mean the file was checked.

Install Disk Drill with winget
Windows ships with a package manager, and this program is in it. The identifier below is the one Microsoft's repository uses, which is also where the download URL and hash on this page come from.
Install
winget install --id CleverFiles.DiskDrill --exactUpgrade later
winget upgrade --id CleverFiles.DiskDrillWhy --exact: without it winget matches on name as well as identifier, and a search that returns more than one package makes it stop and ask rather than install. Pinning the identifier is what makes the command safe to put in a script.
Not installing anything, or getting an error back? The commands that actually come up covers upgrading everything at once, what --include-unknown is for, and why winget can be missing from a machine that should have it.
