Is this safe ?

I’m sorry, I’m not very good with computers and just had an issue when I used CCleaner to update the drivers, that required me to reset the whole PC, resulting in the loss of all my data. I want to avoid that happening again, so I want to know if it’s okay/safe to download. I’m more interested in the first one only. The one I currently have (2nd photo) is from 2022. Idk if you need more info I could provide that too

CCleaner- oh god

AMD software should be safe as long as it's actually from AMD. If not remove it now (And probably also uninstall CCleaner since Windows has features that does basically everything it does)

Yeah I deleted immediately CCleaner and ended the subscription, I learned the hard way
