PID tuner doesn't launch

I just wanted to design a simple PID for a simple 2nd order plant. When I double-click the PID block in Simulink and then click in the "Tune" button, it displays "linearization plant", then the bar disappears, and after that nothing show up.

I tried also to launch the PID tuner from Matlab Apps, and that gives me a set of errors that I show below :

Error using DynamicSystem/margin (line 50) Not enough input arguments.

Error in pidtool.utPIDgetmetrics (line 26) [GM PM WCG WCP] = margin(OLsys);

Error in pidtool.desktop.pidtuner.tc.DataSourcePlot/update (line 160) s = pidtool.utPIDgetmetrics(olsys, r2y);

Error in pidtool.desktop.pidtuner.tc.DataSourcePlot (line 108) this.update(true, true);

Error in pidtool.desktop.pidtuner.PIDTunerTC (line 67) this.DataSourcePlot = pidtool.desktop.pidtuner.tc.DataSourcePlot(this);

Error in pidtool.desktop.PIDTuner (line 22) this.TC = pidtool.desktop.pidtuner.PIDTunerTC(this.Parent.PlantList, desiredtype, baselinecontroller, this.Parent.SimulinkGateway, this.Parent.Type);

Error in pidtool.PIDToolDesktop (line 71) this.PIDTuner = pidtool.desktop.PIDTuner(this, desiredtype, baselinecontroller);

Error in pidtool (line 107) eval(cmd);

Error in pidTuner (line 71) pidtool;

How can I overcome this problem ? Is there a problem with my computer ? What can I do ? Thank you.

I also add that the PID tuner worked on the R2013a version, but very slowly, and with the update of the PID tuner in the R2014a version, it stopped working. I even tried the trial version R2016a and I still have the same problem. Thank you.
