Run /usr/bin/messagebus-config and follow the instructions for 
installing messagebus as a service.  You will need to be logged in as a 
user with administrator privileges for this.

The executable /usr/bin/emacs-nox.exe is stripped; that's why you 
couldn't debug it.  Here's a link to the unstripped version, with debug 
symbols:
