I selected "Open" and a repeat pop up appeared" :"Adobe Photoshop elements 2019_ Mac can't be opened because it is from an unidentified developer" Your security preferences allow installation of only apps from the App Store and identified developers".

Can I progress from here?

Depends on the app. Right/control clicking its icon and choosing "Open" from the contextual menu should work.

Well Adobe is certainly not an unidentified developer and I have PSE 2019 installed on more than one Mac. I would contact Amazon because you wouldn't get that message if you purchased it from Adobe.
