I am having and error every time I try to execute "View History" option from any branch and file.

"Could not execute HistoryAction"
I tried to reinstall TEE and Eclipse, deleting plugin cache, changing default timeout in eclipse.ini config file, re-mapping and creating workspace... but any of that actions works.
This is the log:

I'd need to see your platform.log to know for sure, but I suspect that you're also running into bug 290 which results from a deprecated SWT widget being removed. The underlying cause is that the HistoryTreeControl uses a TableTreeViewer which was deprecated and ultimately removed in Eclipse 4.10.
Regrettably, at the moment, I would encourage you to either downgrade your Eclipse, vote on that issue, view history on the web or some combination of those options.
