Raspberry Pi Connect • rpi-connect stopped working, can't start it now?

My rpi-connect stopped working after about 8 months of rock solid stability. I could not get it to start. Its a Pi 5 with raspberry OS

So

I uninstalled it
sudo apt remove --purge rpi-connect

Checked my system was up to date (it was)

Installed rip-connect without errors
sudo apt install rpi-connect

tried to start it with
rpi-connect on

and got this response
✗ Cannot start Raspberry Pi Connect as no D-Bus session bus is set, please see the man page for rpi-connect-on(1)

The man page was not helpful.

Any thoughts please?
