Meaning it doesn't run on LTSB as well (10240). Too bad, it's the only sane version of Windows 10 yet.

That'll be because Windows 10 is the first desktop Windows OS with support for Hyper-V.

If you didn't want to use Windows 10, perhaps you might have some more luck with a Windows Server OS. Does anyone know if the latest version of Docker will work on Windows Server 2012?

Client Hyper-V actually showed up in Windows 8 [1], but only recent versions of Windows 10 have Hyper-V with all the features needed by Docker for Windows.
