replace everything after the first occurrence of)

[lcastanheiro]

Hello i have several movie files that are named something like this
Never Look Away (2018) - Drama, Thriller, History
I want to rename it to
Never Look Away (2018)
I entered the following
RegEx(1)
Match: (.+)\)
Repla: \1

But instead of getting Never Look Away (2018) it also deletes the last ")" and i get Never Look Away (2018. I want to keep the last )

Thanks for your help

Your match for \1 matches anything up to the character before the (final, as it is) ')'.

So include \) within your \1 match.

Code: Select all

Match:  (.+\))


If you wanted to make it non-greedy:

Code: Select all

Match:  (.+?\))
