Run As Administrator: Business Attire Required

Run As Administrator: Business Attire Required
When you just want to execute a simple program but Windows insists you dress professionally and get management approval first.

The formal business attire requirement is clearly mentioned in section 37.4 of the EULA that nobody reads.

The perfect metaphor for corporate IT security โ€“ where the only thing standing between a catastrophic system failure and normal operation is... a costume change. Next time your app crashes, just put on a blazer before restarting it.
