Default i'm having trouble installing Q ship mod

If you are running Win 7 or 8, install SH3 Commander outside of the Program Files. Same for SH3 itself. From an earlier post ( another member ) on a similar topic:

-------------------

The key point is that starting with Win7, Microsoft has started imposing a lot of restrictions on anything in the Program folders - either Program itself or Program (x86). These are measures that supposedly deter or impede hackers and other malicious programs. Part of it is not allowing any files in those folders to be changed except under very rigorous controls - so any .cfg files are fairly well wonked.

Main idea is to install any files that are constantly being written to in any other folders than the Program ones.
