Cant access app settings and permissons - Stuck on loading

[Tahsin Khan]

Its on android marshmallow os and my phone is htc one m8. The "apps" section in the settings app is always stuck on the loading animation when I go to it. This problem occurs no matter how I try to access the apps menu by other routes. It prevents me from accessing and turning on/off special permissons which is a problem for me as I cant use app lock since it needs permisson. This started when I merged my sd card with the internal storage.
