Cause
This issue occurs because Windows 10 Version 1709 enforces a policy that configures Vmcompute.exe not to allow any non-Microsoft DLL files to be loaded.
Resolution
To fix this issue, check whether you have a non-Microsoft DLL file loaded in the Vmcompute.exe process. One possible cause of this issue is your antivirus software.
