'''INF''', or '''Windows Setup Information File''', is a kind of [[INI]] file used by Microsoft Windows to control the installation of drivers and other software. Though it looks like a configuration file, it is used more like a setup script.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In addition to '''.inf''' format, there is a '''.pnf''' &amp;quot;Precompiled INF&amp;quot; format, and an '''.inf_loc''' format that reportedly contains cached information.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Identification ==&lt;br /&gt;
A standard INF file has a &amp;quot;[Version]&amp;quot; section, containing an item named &amp;quot;Signature&amp;quot;. But note that some INF-like formats, such as [[Autorun.inf]], have a different structure.&lt;br /&gt;
