NSISpcre plugin | Regular expression not work
Hello,

I'm trying to use:
http://nsis.sourceforge.net/NSISpcre_plug-in
with the following code:

${REReplace} $0 "[^A-Z^a-z^0-9]" "123ABC456xcv" "_" 1
MessageBox MB_OK 'fixed: $0'

which i would like to replace all chars that are not (a-z, A-z, 0-9)
but it gives back EMPTY STRING.

Am i missing something?

I found out that it happen, if no replace found.
the fix, is to add some chat that will be always replaced (match to REGEX):
(i used _ char)

${REReplace} $0 "[^A-Z^a-z^0-9]" "123ABC456xcv_" "_" 1
MessageBox MB_OK 'fixed: $0'
