The RegEx(1) can match a range of characters, so it depends on what means 'similiar wrong characters'.
To destroy all of the unicodes, you can put a checkmark in "v2", so then using a 'Match' like...
[^\x20-\x7F]+/g
But to only destroy 'similiar wrong characters', Im thinking it should be more like...
(\xf0.|\xe2)../g
If the second regex destroys too many unicodes, then somewhere must post samples of similiar wrong characters.
Its unfortunate, but I think the bru forum software does forbid the posting of these special characters?
But there is probably some websites to grant posting them, so then maybe providing a link to see them.

I don’t understand why, but that’s not important
