OK-figured this out. I opened the program and had to install it first before I could remove it.
I would like to get rid of this program. Win Patrol popups all the time asking if I want to give this program permission to start up and Malwarebytes flags it as a PUP. When I go to the control panel and try to uninstall it on a Windows 7 machine I get this message that it cannot be uninstalled: LATFORM VERSION INFO Windows    : 6.1.7601.65536 (Win32NT) Common Language Runtime  : 4.0.30319.34209 System.Deployment.dll   : 4.0.30319.34244 built by: FX452RTMGDR clr.dll    : 4.0.30319.34209 built by: FX452RTMGDR dfdll.dll    : 4.0.30319.34244 built by: FX452RTMGDR dfshim.dll    : 4.0.41209.0 (Main.041209-0000) IDENTITIES Deployment Identity  : DellSystemDetect.application, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=0f612f649c4a10af, processorArchitecture=msil ERROR SUMMARY Below is a summary of the errors, details of these errors are listed later in the log. * Error occurred during store lookup, component store may have been corrupted.
