You can find out how Emacs was built by checking this variable:
,----[ C-h v system-configuration-options RET ]
| system-configuration-options is a variable defined in ‘C source code’.
| Its value is
| "... --without-imagemagick --without-dbus ..."
|
| Documentation:
| String containing the configuration options Emacs was built with.
`----
You can try to delete `libdbus-*.dll' in your Emacs/bin directory, maybe
that prevents Emacs from using DBus [1].
Best, Arash
