How To Delete And Prevent System Trace On Samsung Galaxy J2

[startac4]

Notification had an icon which when displayed said system trace was running on Galaxy J2. I don't want a system trace and did not knowingly initiate it. How do I delete the trace from the phone's storage and how do I prevent it from doing a trace again?

Go into Developer Options, you can turn off and disable System Tracing there.

In the build location, tap it seven times,it should be underneath where your reset options are.

Thank you for you reply but now I must ask what & where is "the build location"? I found
Settings ->Developer Options -> System Tracing but "Record Trace" is already set off. The question is how did it start running? I selected "Clear Saved Traces" but it did not confirm what if anything was deleted.
