Well, you got folders named after a set and the set archived (as zip) in your rompath. This is obsolete.
Only exception are sets with chds (which seems to be the case), where you need to store the chd in a rompath subfolder named after the set. But clrmame handles this automatically and does not show such messages in this case.

Be sure you got all systems, sets/bios/devices and chd types enabled and get your data from an official MAME binary and do a fresh "new scan".
If that does not help, you can send me your cmpro.ini file plus the datfiles\*.dat and settings\*.cmp file for your used profile.

it seems that you scan a collection with chds with a datfile which does not include chds. thats why should use an official mame as profile data source

exactly what I thought....your dat does not have any <disk ... elements, i.e. it does not list any chds....so of course cmpro complains about "set archive and set folder exist in same rompath" and of course any of your chd files become unneeded...

No idea where you got that datfile from...-as mentioned before- you should use a direct import from an official MAME binary (Profiler->Create...) instead using a 3rd party dat.
