Does Content Checkup Explain How to Fix the Errors it Finds?

This looks like a very handy utility - but I need to know HOW to fix the errors it finds.

I assume that the script does not actually fix the errors - I didn't see anything in the product description that said it did.

You are correct, it doesn't fix the errors, but give you a clear idae of what the error is, like "texturemap file doesn't exist", or "the folder where the texturemaps are supposed to be doesn't exist" or "wrongly formed path i content file" (which can be harder to fix without fully knowning).

The reason it doesn't change anything is (it doesn't know what the correct thing is, it might guess, but thats all).

If the directory Runtime/Textures/Acme/Belltower/watch_diffuse.jpg doesn't exist, it's hard to know what file it is, specially if the whole Belltower directory isn't there. When analyzing zip files, it can guess better based on whats in the zip or not, but still guesses. 

Hope that helps
