Default missing file causing Windows error message popup

I am running Win XPSP3 and use IOBITS Advanced System Care free
edition. I recently updated from v 5 to v6 and now at every boot I get
an error message that pops up telling me that Windows cannot find
C:/Program Files/IOBIT/Advanced System Care 5/ASCTRAY.exe.

I have searched for this file to no avail and it is not shown in any
of my uninstaller applications such as Revo Uninstaller, Windows
ADD/Remove and others.

Any suggestions on why this was not removed when I updated from ASC 5
to ASC 6 and more importantly is there a way to remove it and the
Windows error message.

Run msconfig and see if that's listed in "startup"
then uncheck it

Please don't use IObit software. This Chinese company has been caught
red-handed plagiarizing the US software company MalwareBytes and the
company, and software, can't be trusted.

I agree with David.... IOBIT plagarized the work of Malwarebytes, and
are an unethical company. I suggest uninstalling their software.

Thanks to all responders. Found it in the startup programs and removed
it - now will see if the error popup returns.
