It appears to be.

The script this service runs modifies crontab entries (yecch!). Not
opening could be due to user modification of the time-slider service
itself, bad permissions somewhere, or a read-only file system.
Try:
ls -ld /var/spool/cron/crontabs
df /var/spool/cron/crontabs

It looks like the root crontab. Something is definitely strange on your
system.
If you do this:
pfexec su - root
crontab -l > /tmp/root.cron
crontab /tmp/root.cron
what happens?
