Hi @Fayez Elmassry try this. Download the free Revo Uninstaller and use with Advanced scanning mode setting. Try to install the AWCC if not listed in Programs and Features, then use Revo Uninstaller to see if it is listed. If yes, use Revo Uninstaller to uninstall your AWCC, press Scan and when prompted select and delete all files, you might get a second prompt to select and delete more files. You have now removed everything associated with the AWCC. After restart, you should be able to clean install the AWCC, as if for the first time. Kind regards.

Hi @Fayez Elmassry your Dell G5 15 5590 Support's Drivers and Downloads page is Here. At the top of this support page, click on Detect Drivers. You may now wish to save shortcut to this page for your Dell Service Tag. Download AWCC v5.2.91.0, right click and Run as administrator.

Your G model is not an Alienware.* The model name is G3- one step below Alienware. But you can use ACC. See the info here-
https://www.dell.com/support/article/en-us/sln128904/alienware-command-center-quick-guide?lang=en
See this about installing audio driver before the ACC-- Important Information: It is recommended that you install the audio driver version 6.0.1.8394 or later before installing this update. It is applicable on Alienware and G-Series systems with Realtek audio.
Dell G3 drivers and software here--https://www.dell.com/support/home/en-us/product-support/product/g-series-15-5590-laptop/drivers
*See Chris' post at the top of the Alienware forum https://www.dell.com/community/Alienware/Inspiron-G-are-not-Alienware-Do-not-post-here/td-p/7324441

Hi @Fayez Elmassry you have found AWCC in Revo Uninstaller as "Alienware Command Center Suite" (i.e. AWCC Suite) and are now ready for Revo Uninstaller to remove it.

Hello @Fayez Elmassry thank you for your update. To recap, your update says AWCC was uninstalled and then reinstalled. Hopefully there was a Restart so that the uninstalled process was consolidated before the reinstalled.
Have just visited the Support for Dell G5 5590 page to look at the general AWCC v5.2.91.0 installation requirements. You will have pressed on the [Detect Drivers] button, to detect your service tag and to get your specific installation requirements. We note that the general AWCC requirements are:-
If you get prompts to install additional AWCC components, make sure you remain on both mains power and battery power.

Make sure to set your power plan to High performance also to get extra power and get the operation done faster.

Ohh. Now I understand,
So the Alienware versions of the command center differ from the G-series laptops command center.
