You have to put JSGME.exe & JSGMEHelp.txt in the ROOT directory - e.g.

c:Program Files/Ubisoft/Silent Hunter 4 Wolves of the Pacific.

Then run it from the root directory ( double left clck ) to create the necessary Mods & backup files.

Finally RIGHT CLICK on the JSGME icon in the root file and "send to ..." your desktop.

Rename the shortcut this creates accordingly and you should have JSGME ready to roll.

Just put any mods you want to use in the Mods folder which JSGME creates in the root directory when you run it for the first time. When your mods are in the Mods folder, you can activate / deactivate them by double clicking on your desktop JSGME icon to access JSGME.

It basically does the same thing you would do to put a mod into your game. It replaces the files in the game with the modded files. It automates the process of backing up the original files, checking for conflicts and keeping track of which mods are installed and which aren't. In general, it makes modding life a lot simpler!

One thing you need to make sure to do is check the folder structure on the mods when you decompress (unzip, unrar, un7z) them. Always make sure that the folder you put in the MODS folder is the one that (generally) contains the Data folder. Most mods change a file that is contained somewhere in the Data folder (or a folder contained in it), so you can tell that you have reached the mod itself when you get to the Data folder.
