MD5 results useless

I'm constantly backing up things and have MD5 checksums, sometimes I only copy a bunch of files/folders, so when I check for CRC differences I had this result: OK: 56794, not found: 21752, read error: 1, CRC error: 2
and it's almost imposible to find the errors in that huge list.

Solution would be to be able to hide/show Ok, NotFound, CRCerr, RdErr, or at least to be able to save results to a file and the using an editor to sort results.

Yeah, there have been a few similar requests in the past.
However, even in this dialog there is a hidden hotkey: you can use CTRL+UP/DOWN to jump between errors.

There are two small arrow buttons in the dialog's lower left corner that you can use to jump between the errors that occured. Yes, it doesn't help with that many errors but who saves the checksums of so many files in one checksum file? Maybe it's better to let TC create one checksum file per folder?

That's what they are for? They do nothing when I use them.

Edit: Actually, they do work. BUT only if I use CTRL+UP/DOWN first. That sounds like a bug to me.

found a workaround, just press first letter of what you are looking for (C for CRC error...)
