You can't, really. A quick work-around might be
<Location />
Options -Index
</Location>

Or simply get rid of mod_autoindex from your loaded modules.

But the correct solution is to search through all your conf files and
remove "Indexes" from every Options directive that you find.

The reason the single -Indexes doesn't work is because it will be
overridden by other Options directives applying to more specific parts
of the filesystem.
