First case:
There is a space after the >!
Second case:
But I don't see the need to use a regex here, search & replace would be able to do the same. But nevertheless, no special syntax necessary

You asked for a regex pattern. Ofc you have to use regexp rename...

oh, now i see. for some reason i thought this form already includes batch + regex depending what you state in input. seems like i'll have to reassign my shortcuts for rename.) or maybe there is a way to state what kind of F2-rename i want when many files are selected?(as i see F2 is for simple rename but when many files selected Batch comes in place, thogh it's assigned to Shift+F2

You mean batch rename? No.
You have to use either regexp rename... or search & replace...
My pattern was for the regexp variant but your "problem" can easily solved by search & replace... as well.

look for\search text
\s
replace with\replacement text
a/\n
This works fine but with each document's last line. Which 'look for' I could use so the entire document is done on a single pass?
edit: it turns out the replacement generates <lf> separated lines, not <crlf>. How could I fix this too?

I don't understand...
Show a screenshot of what is happening and what should have happened...

Sure.
Please consider the edit I did.
a\r\n solves the <crlf> problem I guess.

You want to replace all line ending u's with a's in the whole document?
Search for: u$
Replace with: a

Yes.
Being the problem the last line of each document.

$ matches each line ending, even the one of the last line so what I suggested should work

Output:
? h4\static\Windows\win32\
d4\optim\Windows\winsxs\
! r3\static\Windows\win64\
How can I get this using regexreplace sc, please?

Nothing easier than that:
Code: Select all
$a = <<<>>>
? h4\static\Windows\win32\Manifests\x86_microsoft-windows-ndisuio.resources_31bf3856ad364e35_6.1.7600.16385_pt-br_9dc57ae50d7ad254.manifest

! r3\static\Windows\win64\x86_netgb6.inf_31bf3856ad364e35_6.1.7600.16385_none_33c0abd150a8143e
>>>;
text regexreplace($a, "^((?:.*?\\){4})(.*?$)", "$1");

Hello, highend! Thanks for the prompt reply on this busy saturday I'm having.
As far as I can tell your code splits elements to the first 4 tokens '\' divided, right?
Say I'd need to state manually
? h4\static\Windows\win32\Manifests\
or
d4\optim\Windows - yes, no '\' here.
or
! r3\static\
what could I do?
