It seems there is something basically wrong with your system, the
question is what? How did you install Debian?
It was a clean net-install of Stretch, not an upgrade, in a computer
with new hard drives.
Also post the contents of the file .xsession-errors after running
dconf-editor and attempting to save changes.
Here is the full content of .xsession-errors after running dconf-editor
in a terminal and finding the terminal the messages quoted below.

When you run dconf-editor in a terminal and attempt to save something
is there anything shown in the terminal?
when I open dconf-editor in a terminal, the first thing that happens is
appearance of the following two lines in the terminal:
(dconf-editor:2308): GLib-GIO-CRITICAL **: g_dbus_proxy_new_sync:
assertion 'G_IS_DBUS_CONNECTION (connection)' failed
(dconf-editor:2308): GLib-GIO-CRITICAL **: g_dbus_proxy_get_name_owner:
assertion 'G_IS_DBUS_PROXY (proxy)' failed
Then the dconf-editor window appears superimposed on the terminal. In
that window I do the same thing I have done before -- change the date
format default for gnucash from 4 to 1. The when I hit Enter the window
disappears, but the following line now appears in the terminal, below
the two lines quoted above:
(dconf-editor:2412): dconf-WARNING **: failed to commit changes to
dconf: Failed to execute child process "dbus-launch" (No such file or
directory)
Regards, Ken
