Research direction

No source file or test is identified. Start by reproducing the desktop setup flow: begin provisioning, press Back, then try to log in again; use log ID bd6369aaed3ff1f4a95ebe1c and trace the “Provision transaction already in progress” error. Done means leaving setup does not prevent a later setup attempt.
