It seems like your ~/.dbus/ folder is owned by root instead of by your own user.



If this is the case, you can:





  1. Remove that folder, using:



    sudo rm -rf ~/.dbus



Or:





  1. Change the ownership to your-username / your-user-group using:



    sudo chown -R your-user-name.your-user-group-name ~/.dbus/


    Note: replace your-user-name.your-user-group-name with the actual values, e.g. if your user is sal and your group is also sal than it will be: sal.sal
