Windows 7 & .inf files -- any coders with experience?

I have in the past written many .inf files for installing applications or files my own way instead of using an installer like InstallShield. I have written little tools to write/convert .inf files.

Now on windows 7, my simple .inf files (well, not always simple) don't all want to work. I get the error
"The INF file you selected does not support this method of installation."

Googling seems to provide only x64 issues, which is not what I am using (x32bit here).

Here is a sample of one that does not work.

Code:

[Version]
Signature=$Windows NT$

[Optional Components]
HiddenFiles_Addons

[HiddenFiles_Addons]
OptionDesc	="Hidden Files toggle"
Tip		="Hidden Files toggle Addon"
Modes		=0,1,2,3
RegisterDlls	=DLLs.Register

[DLLs.Register]
11,ShellExt,HiddenFilesToggle.dll,1

Does anyone know of what differences Win 7 brings in .inf syntax? It is just lovely that they screwed something that has been around and standardized for so long.

Nevermind. This was an .inf file from a RyanVM add-on. As such, it just needed to be restructured for common .inf syntax.
