Spaces Vanish

Why do All spaces in ALL file names disappear? Whenever I try to remove repetitive text in file names it removes the proper text AND ALL spaces. What am I missing?

I'm trying to remove _ and " and " from video titles. This has happened twice before when trying to remove punctuation marks.

Typically " is not a valid file name character.

Anyhow, how are you going about this?
1:RegEx, 3:Replace, 5:Remove, some other way? And what parameters are you using?

I'm using the remove box. If " is not a title figure, why do I have so many of them? Shouldn't Explorer not allow them? Anyway I'm using Explorer to rename them one at a time.
