disable your anti virus, perhaps it's blocking access to the file being extracted

I removed cheat engine 5.5 to clear the registry entry's (does it do that and does it have any registry entries?) and installed ce 5.5 about last last christmas and ran it a few weeks ago.

Did you reboot after that? Some really bad ones don't actually turn off untill you've rebooted (e.g: norton)

yes, but the installer of ce automatically overwrites anything that could be a problem.
The only reason you can't overwrite a file is when it's in use or your resident shield/internet security is preventing access to the file
what file doesn't want to be replaced?
also, you can just install to any other location if you like. e.g c:\program files\cheatengine56 so ti won't have to overwrite anything
and if all else fails there's also the version without installer that you can just extract anywhere
