After installing racket distribution (both 32 and 64 bits) on a Windows 10 machine (Windows 10 Insider Preview 16179.1000) I got an Unexpected Kernel Mode Trap when trying to start DrRacket.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the DrRacket startup failure on Windows 10 Insider Preview 16179.1000 with both 32-bit and 64-bit Racket distributions. Compare whether the Unexpected Kernel Mode Trap still occurs; the issue is resolved when DrRacket starts successfully or the failure is narrowed to a specific distribution and environment.
