Yes, INF files are confusing. No one writes INF files from scratch.
You start from a working sample and modify it.

What kind of driver are you writing? You can look for samples in the
WDK, or you can go through the nearly 1,000 INF files on your own
computer in \Windows\INF to get some ideas.

You have to think about how the Device Manager will process your file.
It will start with the section with fixed names, like [Version] and
[Manufacturer] and [Strings]. Those sections point to other sections
with names that YOU choose, that eventually get to directives that tell
it what to do.

I never thought that a name like “Sarah Jason” might be particularly popular among the natives of the Indian subcontinent…
