5.) You want to check whole directories:

You can open directories in RapidCRC exactly the way you open files; please have a look at entry number 1 above. There is just one exception: the windows open-files dialog is not able to select directories and because the 'Open Files' button in RapidCRC uses this dialog, you can't open directories via 'Open Files' button.
