Alien blood is infiltrative of system like water in sand, meaning it can be difficult to completely uninstall it clean. Dell AW support has a video how to “clean” uninstall AWCC, but even that shows how extensive the infiltration is. Since hours had been spent, and your interest is not to understand how AWCC uninstall works but to have a working install, try fresh clean install of Windows 10 and then clean install AWCC of the correct ver. for your system. This saves time and headache.
You can try running Revo Uninstaller (free) if ACC really has a version installed. Note: Revo may not see ACC as an app it can uninstall, since you've already deleted some of it.
And/or try running the registry tool in ccleaner (free) to clean up some of the leftover junk.
