xdebug not found in php.ini xampp

Question

I am using PHP version 7.1.11. Installing the xdebug extension. I have downloaded the xdebug binary and added it into php/ext .

Now i am configuring the xdebug in php.ini. But doing CTRL+F i am not finding xdebug in php.ini. So i am trying to add it myself with below steps :

adding the line extension=php_xdebug.dll
adding the section

[XDebug]
zend_extension = "d:\xampp\php\ext\php_xdebug.dll"
xdebug.remote_autostart = 1
xdebug.remote_enable = 1
xdebug.remote_handler = "dbgp"
xdebug.remote_host = "127.0.0.1"

Now i am asking

above two steps are right?
is there should be any order(means it should be keep anywhere in the php.ini file)?
