Dell System Detect

My Dell computer is out of warranty.  Dell System Detect runs for HOURS every morning.  The past few days I have ended the process but today I figured maybe it's something that needs to complete and we're going on 5 hours now!  I searched for Dell System Detect and learned that it is safe to remove, however it is not listed in Programs and Features ... so, I can't uninstall.  I also have installed Dell PC Checkup and ran that and everything is in order.  I would like to retain Dell PC Checkup but need to get rid of Dell System Detect it's slowing my whole system down!

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    It is listed in Control Panel, Programs--  Add Remove Programs and can be removed. It is not in Features. What model computer and operating system do you have?
