Hello, I am running windows 10 version 1803 build 17134.523. I am also running Dr. Memory version 1.11.0 which I am required to use for a class. Upon running Dr. Memory I get a few errors, and I am told to download syscalls_wow64.txt, and after doing so, and after placing the file in the right directory i still get the same error. I have attached the results.txt that I get please let me know what I should do to fix this.

Pasting the key results.txt lines:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Dr. Memory\bin\syscalls_wow64.txt does not contain an entry for this kernel.
Running on an unsupported operating system. Please download http://drmemory.org/syscalls_wow64.txt and save as C:\Program Files (x86)\Dr. Memory\bin\syscalls_wow64.txt to avoid false positives and other problems.

Are you sure you successfully wrote syscalls_wow64.txt to C:\Program Files (x86)\Dr. Memory\bin? Windows has a file virtualization feature where non-elevated writes are redirected and appear to succeed but actually write to your profile dir. You probably need to copy it there as admin. (Future versions will relocate this file to avoid this permissions issue, and try to auto-generate it: #1848.)
