Secondly, when something is "permanently deleted", instead of actually clearing the bytes on your Hard Drive, the system simply modifies the Master File Table to mark the bytes as clear, but leaves the data sitting on the HDD. That's why files are recoverable. At some point later when you start trying to add new files, however, Windows will overwrite old empty blocks with the new data.
Windows doesn't just overwrite files that exist. At some point you uninstalled or deleted the application files, and you've since installed new games which have filled in the space.

I know for a FACT that I NEVER uninstalled the Epic games launcher or anything I downloaded on it since I was using it 1 week ago.

Or my hard drives are loving up. i just reinstalled the Epic Games launcher and it said "repair" for unreal engine 4. Files have been replacing other files that arent even in the same folder.
