Normally, when full credentials have not been provided, there will be a prompt from the credential provider to ask for that user name and password. However if something is routing through the background service, that is too late in the process to provide that information as it would happen during a non-interactive part of the session - thus it needs to be asked for early on before the background service is called.

Follow on work for Chocolatey Licensed and the background service is located at chocolatey/chocolatey-licensed-issues#38. Expected to land in Chocolatey Licensed Extension v1.12.12.
