Search Slow; Loops; Wrong tags - uninstalled desktop all works..

Hi,

I've been having some serious search problems, I often use the "search
tagged notes" to retrieve action items.

Problems I've had are:
1) very slow search
2) Tagged notes references are wrong, click on one, get another.
3) Recently started having loops. Endlessly see the same tagged notes
scrolling when finding all tagged notes..

On several ocassions, I've rebuild the onenote indexes. I've removed them,
I've re-indexed using Desktop search no dice.

until.. I just removed desktop search altogether and everything is dandy,
instantly.

What gives?

I assume you're using OneNote 2007? Do you have all the patches/hotfixes
installed? I seem to recall that there was a patch for WDS. In fact,
version 3.01 of WDS is available for download - you might give that a try.

Let's be honest - Desktop Search is a beta product, released to the
masses. Make sure you have all the latest updates for it, and even then
performances will vary. If you are using it just for OneNote, and not
doing audio transcriptions, etc. then I would suggest not using it,
relying instead on OneNote's own mechanisms.
