Unable to reinstall Mac Home AV free ed

I have used this successfully for a while, but the upgrade to Mavericks and 9.1 seems to have killed it. The auto-update became sporadic and then gave continual authentication errors. It did manage to complete a scan, but the progress window showed otherwise. All a bit flaky.

I decided to remove it with AppZapper and reinstall. The installer runs, but it quits with an "unable to install" message. What is the wisdom on this?

Still struggling with this -- have watched video several times and made notes. I believe I am following procedure to the letter!
