Sorry Patrick, I based the answer on my own experience running El Capitan. It 
seems that the Apfel folks have decided to do things differently on Sierra. 
With this in mind, this is what my best friend (DuckDuckGo) had told me:

http://osxdaily.com/2016/09/27/allow-apps-from-anywhere-macos-gatekeeper/ 
<http://osxdaily.com/2016/09/27/allow-apps-from-anywhere-macos-gatekeeper/>

The above is one of the reasons why I do not blindly follow Apfel’s lure to 
drag me into a new OS version whenever one is dropped in front of me; I’ve had 
too many bad experiences where software which had once worked flawlessly became 
a waste of space on my hard drive after an OS upgrade.
