Yes, it's free.

You can also try Recuva. There is a fully functional free version.

I didn't like Recuva. At a quick analysis, it cannot recover anything. And the full lasts a very long time...

EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard Free is good program, scans and finds files quickly. However, it does not save the directory tree and their names. In the free version, the preview function is limited, which, together with unsaved file names, complicates the process of restoring them.

Tried Hetman Office Recovery. This is a paid program, but the free version allows to scan the drive and view the recoverable files in a preview window.

I will try to restore the found files with the free Easeus. If it restores everything I need, then Ok. If not, then I will have to use some of paid tools.
