The Windows Installer engine is not aware of INF files. Reading property values from an inf file would require a custom action. That said, WiX might add such an action by default, but I don't know WiX well enough. Probably others in here could answer this. Otherwise, to help us better understand your needs: where did you read about INF files and Windows Installer? And what exactly are you trying to achieve?
