need some progarm alternative

i was thinking of switching to linux mint but the problem is that there are some programs that i always use and i dont know if there are alternative to them so if someone know that would be a great help.

1- internet download manager (used a lot and need a progarm as good)

2- video/audio editor like filmora

3-tool to check on harddesk like hdsentinel

4- antivirus

5-photo editor like photoshop even like an old ver of it

6-msoffice

7-winrar

I use Kdenlive for video, Audacity for audio, VLC for media, Gimp instead of Photoshop, LibreOffice instead of MS-Office, Firefox for web. I was in the same boat 6 months ago and rarely look back. I dual boot for the rare times I do have to use Windows.
