There is no History Center for MT5,  if you mean MT4 then your question should be posed on the mql4 forum after you have first use Google and the mql4 forum search tool to search for an answer,  the topic of history data has been discussed many times.

 

And please do not SHOUT when your type a post title or content.

ALL CAPITALS is regarded as SHOUTING . . .  it also makes it harder to read what you have written,  we usually read text in Sentence case and we get used to the shape of words,  using CAPITALS means we no longer can recognize the shape so it takes longer to read.  

So using ALL CAPITALS is counter productive . . .

I use MetaTrader server:

 

MetaQuotes-Demo

 

which serves with data for majors up to 10 years back. In backtest, most majors show 100 % tick quality.
