You should work very carefull and slowly. It should work now.
At a startup screen I see now that the program at the bottom right shows that it is still version 1.3! Why, I don't understand!
Maybe someone can say something about it?

If someone here is reading this: Can anyone tell me if I can install the extension uboat mission (and thus patch 1.5) now? (So ​​even though v1.3 is indicated in the bottom right!)

Please tell me how it goes...

easy

P.S. Some authors advise NOT to install SH IV in Program Files (86). I still have to study on that ....
With acquiring SH4 through Steam, check your library, as I recall... the 1.5 aka Uboat Missions, should be there, ready to download & install... I bought from Steam a bit back, a 3 in 1 package deal... comprising SH3, SH4 & SH5.

If I am NOT mistaken, you bought SH4 through them, it should be available to d/l & install as I mentioned... it was there for Me. Should see two (2) SH4 listings... Silent Hunter: Wolves of the Pacific & Silent Hunter: Wolves of the Pacific: Uboat Missions.
