Error in CMD prompt console running node-red - ENOENT /var/run/dbus/system_bus_socket -

Thanks for you advice - I found the issue - package.json lists this:

{
"name": "node-red-project",
"description": "A Node-RED Project",
"version": "0.0.1",
"private": true,
"dependencies": {
"@mschaeffler/node-red-logic": "~0.7.1",
"@victronenergy/node-red-contrib-victron": "~1.4.32",
"node-red-contrib-calc": "~1.0.5",
"node-red-contrib-controltimer": "~0.3.0",
"node-red-contrib-modbus": "~5.26.0",
"node-red-contrib-sum": "~0.1.1",
"node-red-contrib-victron-modbus": "~0.1.2",
"node-red-dashboard": "~3.4.0"
}
}

and in lock.json Dbus is in node-red-contrib-victron
In the developers explanation of that node's operation, it indicates Linux usage, so there is the problem.
I need only a few Modbus reads to the Victron equipment and it was convenient to use that contrib. but I will just do the reads with Modbus read nodes - it's not much data.

Thanks for all the assistance.
Thank you again for your help.
