    It is started by a process named DCEXEC.EXE which controls the Data Collector collection sets.

    DCEXEC is invoked by a SQL Agent job generated automatically by the Data Collector configuration.

    I could change the jobs directly, but it wouldn't reflect the changes in the Data Collector configuration and it would be overwritten by changes in the Data Collector config window.
