I think "Problem Report" is a misnomer. When I first ran the report a few years ago I, too, had page after page of supposed "problems". Going through the list I noticed it was 99.9% things I was aware of and didn't consider problems. Even adjusting the parameters of the report gives me a lot of what I call unnecessary information. Needless to say, I don't run that report anymore except on imported gedcoms, and then I discard about 95% of those results. Earl B.

Through time the Problem report has been improved with range and parameter selections. I have only two issues with this report: 1. Message "Born after Father's Death" which can be OK if withing the normal pregancy period of 9 months, 2. The lack of a way to tag a specific message for an individual as correct. Example died at 100+ is correct for John Doe. Do not want to change the range check, but just tag this one as OK.
