I couldn't figure out a way to fix it, so I just don't worry about it for now. I can also confirm that all my OneNote file types are set to "index properties only" in my Advanced settings. The OneNote search component must be doing something separate to get its results. Yes, I see that ‘oneindex14://…’ entry, too.

So just for the hell of it, I changed it back to the default "index properties only" and now OneNote entries are appearing in a search. One thing that is happening that is somewhat strange is that I am still seeing in the Modify/Change Selected Locations an entry for 'oneindex14://S-1-5....'. I had previously deleated that because the pop-up message indicated that this location is currently unavailable and to uncheck it. And so has reappeared. I don't know if this may be the reason I'm starting to see OneNote entries in a search. As such I'm hesitant to delete it a 2nd time.

I have implemented this hack (also running Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit with Office 2010 Beta). I noted there were other keys involving ONFILTER.DLL. Should they still be in the registry? Also - I noted that no OneNote entries were being picked up in a search that should have found OneNote items. Hmm. Before finding your fix, OneNote entries were being found, but upon clicking the item found, I would receive a error dialog saying Win could not find Oneindex14..... I have re-indexed just to be certain. Will post back. Bill Niel – Thanks. I have implemented this hack (also running Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit with Office 2010 Beta).
