Post by demokedes »

As you most probably now, Onenote is powerful notetaking app. I am interested if anyone is familiar how to search inside the content of Onenote notes?

OneNote stores notes in .one files

Please try the content: search function to search .one files.

For example:

*.one content:"my content search"

content: will search the file content with the associated system iFilter.



Windows Search indexes .one files by default.
You can search your system index with si: in Everything 1.5.

For example:

*.one si:"my content search"
