Initiation problems (Apache?)

Hi all,

Having just tried to install OpenEMR (the pre-configured package) on my PC (Win 10 technical preview Build 9879) I’ve run into a problem. Installation itself ran without any problems - my system recognized as Win 8 64 bit - but when trying to execute, Apache won’t start. MySQL starts, but is then terminated after about 5 seconds.
The log(s) read as follows:

Any ideas how to solve this ??
Cheers!

If XAMPP Control Panel does not recognize Windows 10, try installing package on a Windows 8 machine.

Separate installs of XAMPP & OpenEMR won’t work either because the most recent version of XAMPP for Windows does not support 10.
