I have a XPages app that contains some notes:// links to documents. The app is used in Internet Explorer which have IBM Notes Browser Plugin installed and we are not allowed to uninstall it.
Is there any option to prepare the notes:// url to enforce opening a target document in a standalone IBM Notes client instead of the plugin?

Do you want to change it for yourself? Or for all users of the app. For just your notes:// links, or for all?
It's controlled by a registry setting: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Notes\shell\open\command. If you have the rights, changing that setting will change it for all Notes links. The normal binding (without the plugin) would look something like this: C:\Program Files (x86)\IBM\Notes\notes.exe" -defini "%1".
If you want to change the behavior for all users, but for just your app's links, I think you're going to have to use a different prefix instead of notes:// and create a script to install the appropriate registry entries for that prefix on your users' machines. See here for more info,
