OK I just double checked with the nvidia WQHL driver as well as blender 2.79. Still crashes with the same error just a different OpenGL reference. I believe the issue belongs to the Windows build.

There have been a few similar issues reported with the latest Microsoft insider builds. Hopefully these are also being reported to Microsoft and they'll be able to resolve them soon.

Thanks for the report, but there's not much we can do here, especially not with some beta version of the OS... We only support official releases. ;)
