There is something wrong in your settings/files (maybe bad zipstructure), because what you describe is NOT the real behaviour of cmpro.
In the "scan" windows, you have to select ALL "fix" toggles (and make sure that backups are enabled, as described in previous post), and cmpro WILL do exactley as you expect it.
