Apple WatchInstalling apps from anywhere is a good way to invite malware to be installed on your Mac.
Open System Preferences > Security & Privacy then select the General tab.
Select: Mac App Store and identified developers
Never download apps from anywhere but the App Store.
Which app did you download and from which website?

May 1, 2016 10:33 PM in response to Carolyn Samitby williammacbookair,I did not download or install any apps.
I was simply asking if the dialogue that pops up when you try to install an app from the internet still appears when the settings is set to "Anywhere".
I do not believe, however, that Apple would make OS X so vulnerable that the user could choose a setting which invites malware onto their machine.
