No sign-in prompt even after you clear the "Keep me signed in" check box in Visual Studio 2013 Preview

Symptoms

When you sign in to Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 Preview, the Microsoft Account authentication dialog box includes a Keep me signed in check box. If you clear the check box, you expect to be prompted to sign in the next time that you start Visual Studio. However, when you shut down and restart, Visual Studio 2013 Preview does not prompt you to sign in again.
