Windows 10 makes you throw in a few extra steps if you use the Start menu. So you click on the "Windows" Start menu, and I'll assume there is a Ubisoft folder on the menu, since that is what I have. You open the folder, select the Silent Hunter 4 program icon with a right-click and then choose "More --->" from the menu. Then when that opens, choose the "Open file location", which is basically what you previously mentioned. However, that is the "short-cut" location. Select the short-cut and right-click on it, and then "Properties". Now you'll have a proper "Properties" dialog box to the actual executable for the program, and the "Target" box will have the path to the file. That's where you want to place the patch file, right-click and "Run as administrator".
