Synaptic package manager isn't included in the Live CD. but you can install it. But, I think, you should better use the terminal. Open it with Ctrl-Alt-T shortcut and run this command to install testdisk

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install testdisk

or using the install button below:

Install via the software center

You can then use testdisk. If you want to install synaptic, use this command instead

sudo apt-get install synaptic

After installation, use sudo testdisk command in the terminal to start using it.
