Why did I have to authenticate for the second time today? The same computer even? Makes no sense

The reason why you may have to authenticate multiple times can vary depending on the type of account you are using. So I can give you an explanation that fits your scenario, please can you tell me if the account you are using is a work/school account or a Microsoft personal account?
Thanks,
Nathan
