That's usually not necessary, and besides, the hard copy will want to put it in the same folder. If you do have Steam, THEBERBSTER has several links in his thread SH4 <> TUTORIALS <> HOW TO DO IT..., including these:

http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...4&postcount=10
and
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...05&postcount=5
which has pictures. I like pictures...

THEBERBSTER's thread there should be required reading for ~all~ SubSim members...

Now, if you don't have Steam, but something else, let us know. Folks around here are more than willing to help you out, and they'll keep after it for weeks on end - OK, maybe just a few hours before we get bored - but still, we'll get you going with what you've got!...

Edit: Whoops! forgot to mention JSGME, see the thread JSGME (Jonesoft Generic Mod Enabler) for words straight from the author. One thing that trips everyone one of us up at least a dozen times is "folder structure". For the "official" User's Guide see the download, but basically speaking, your mod has to have a "root" folder, and then below that, the "Data" folder (and usually a couple-three others). If you use the Windows Archive Manager, it will usually make an extra folder on you, and that's where a mod can also get mangled upon activation. 7-Zip generally doesn't have that issue...
