It seems like your ~/.dbus/ folder is owned by root instead of by your own user.
If this is the case, you can:
Remove that folder, using:
sudo rm -rf ~/.dbus
Or:
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-namewith the actual values, e.g. if your user issaland your group is alsosalthan it will be:sal.sal
