It should be Utility. As the name implies, Utility program helps in enhancing right?

There is a minor difference.

Software tools are used for development also along with repair and enhancement but.

Utility can only analyze repair and enhance, it cannot develop other programs, hence software tool is the correct answer.

Software tool or any of application software can't be repair or enhancement of other program without presently system software.

So system software employed repair or enhancement of other program is known system software.
