You don't need to delete previous versions of SketchUp before installing either a

1. Open the downloaded Installer file as an Administrator. You may need to see
a security prompt and will need to give SketchUp permission to make

seems like nothing is happening.
2. When the installation window opens, you'll have the option to change the
application language and choose a different installation directory.
Click Install, and the Installer will show a progress bar.
3. Once you see the "SketchUp 2016 is Ready to Go!" message you can click on
the SketchUp icon in the window to launch SketchUp right away, alternatively
you can click Finish to close out the installer.
