How do you???

Microsoft should have keelhauled the idiot who came up with UAC, it complicates the hell out of tech support.

Is this YOUR computer you're doing this on? If it's someone else's computer go get your own, if it's YOUR computer then Microsoft has no right to control how you use it. Run As Administrator, disable UAC, if you're going to make modifications to a game you can't have the operating system denying permission to make modifications.

Google usually works;

I would also advise learning some basic computer skills;

I don't know how you would hack the save file since I generally start a new career instead, my experience with hacking save files is that it sometimes works without crashing, then when you return to port and start a new patrol the game resets to default or even screws it up so you have no deck gun at all.

Look at this again;

For the GATO class the deck gun upgrade is listed (in stock game, dunno about TMO, RSRDC, or RFB since I don't use them) as;

[UserPlayerUnit 1.UpgradePackSlot 3]
ID= UpgDeckGun
NameDisplayable= Deck Gun
Type=NULL
AcceptedTypes=USDeckGunBasic, USDeckGunAdv
UserCustomizable=Yes
IDLinkUpgradePackSlots= BowDeckGun, SternDeckGun
IDLinkUpgradePackSlotsIntervalDefault1= NULL, 1942-12-31, Upack3in50calDGStern
IDLinkUpgradePackSlotsIntervalDefault2= 1943-01-01, 1943-12-31, Upack3in50calDGBow
IDLinkUpgradePackSlotsIntervalDefault3= 1944-01-01, 1944-08-19, Upack4in50calDGBow
IDLinkUpgradePackSlotsIntervalDefault4= 1944-08-20, NULL, Upack5in25calDGBow

So what you're looking at there is the 4 inch 50 isn't available at all in stock until New Years Day 1944. Change them all to Upack4in50calDGBow (or 5 inch 25 if you prefer) or change all the dates to NULL so you can pick whatever you want whenever. Then delete all your save game files and start a new career, otherwise you'll be dealing with more complication.

What I need is a way to get into TMO 2.5 files for the placement of the deck guns...Any idea's???

all you should need to do is go to your mods folder and then look for the tmo folder, that should give you access to the files that you need to change.
then follow Sniper's direction.
this does work because I did this and I can get any of the guns at a new career.
