I followed a guide to make a gmod dedi server, I made the batch file, but I don't know where to put it. Where does it go?
Probably the same place as srcds.exe.
Well I can't seem to find srcds.exe I used something called HLUpdateSomething. The tutorial says to put it in the orangebox folder, but I don't have that either.

if you used the HLDSUpdateTool then you DO have an orangebox folder (assuming you ran it with Gmod -game param) goto the -dir parameter and copy and paste that in a folder window(the address bar) then look for it.

Wait I didn't really understand that. I didn't run hlds with gmod -game param or whatever that is and i searched for the orangebox folder, but I still don't have it.
Ok run HLDSUpdateTool, when completed start Command Prompt (CMD). Type in:
cd <location of server>. Example:
cd C:\srcds
On a new line type
hldsupdatetool -command update -game garrysmod -dir <location of server>
Example:
hldsupdatetool -command update -game garrysmod -dir C:\srcds
Then hit enter, after the Update finishes you will have ALL the server files.
Go to where you made your server, in ym example it was C:\srcds then there is an oranage box folder. There you go.
This is also how you updat your server.

The server structure is very much like the client structure. You would place the addons in addons, and the maps in maps.
How would I change the server's name? I can't find it in the servers list when I run Gmod.
Go into orangebox/garrysmod/cfg/server.cfg and edit the hostname.
