Dudes bought them for their ladies they'd brought to the concert. Satin jackets were a headbanger's way of showing dedication to the relationship.
Just remember, love is life and hate is living death...
Treat your life for what it's worth, and live for every breath.

Pretty sure CCleaner wiped the infos, those utilities can overreach here and miss things there because they simply can't keep up with all the apps, all the time. Human backup operations such as you've done are warranted and I'm glad you got back to where you need to be.

A true Bill & Ted moment. 
"You need a heavy metal test."
"Excellent!!!"
My abnormality stems from my mom putting my phone number down as a contact on her medical forms. She had a stay at a hospital a while ago and now I am getting frequent robo-calls from entities that assure me I'm getting Medicare parts A and B and therefore need their services. I answer them because I will get calls from numbers that I don't recognize and they turn out to be customers.
I used to just hang up, and they'd call again.
Then I tried an experiment - I'd hear out the call and then inform it that I don't have the Medicare and please take me out of their databases.
Once I started doing that, the calls had a sharp drop-off in their frequency. I spoke to no human person, but my statement seems to have impacted the course of telemarketing. Even if I'm just attaching a causality to the situation and other factors are in play, I still like to think I had a bit of a John Henry moment and got ahead of the machines.

Oh hey, here's one:
Absolute BANGERS : these are really good loud 'n' fast tunes that we're liking in late 2025. No ranking, just toss 'em out and get metallicized.

I'll add "songs that reflect on life's choices" - a look back on experiences in the biz, life, stuff like that. Not an immediate recollection like "hey we just signed a big contract!" or "waaah my love just broke up with me" but stuff like "damn those were crazy years" or "never gonna work with THAT management firm again, let me provide a musical litany of charges".
