After successfully authenticating to the Preboot Authentication environment, the computer will not complete Single Sign-on.
Instead, the computer halts at the Windows Logon screen for another user. Microsoft Windows 8.1 defaults to the Logon
screen for the previously authenticated user. To complete logon, return to the User Tiles screen by selecting the back arrow
in the top right of the screen and then selecting the correct user tile for the user authenticated in the PBA. SSO data
captured by the PBA may still be present and once the user tile is selected, Windows authentication may be completed
automatically. [MMW-564]
