I need some help with regex to extract specific characters from a given string. Following is the string and required string to extract.
21.4R3.13-EVO -- Required 21.4R3-EVO
24.1R13.13-EVO -- Required 24.1R13-EVO
21.4R2-S1-20190223000107.0-EVO -- Required 21.4R2-EVO
19.4R11-S1-20190223000107.0-EVO -- Required 19.4R11-EVO
I tried following and its matching first half but I couldn't negate the middle section.
[0-9] .[0-9] [A-Z][0-9]
Matching
21.4R3

You can use this regex for search:
^(\d \.[a-zA-Z\d] )[-.].*(-[a-zA-Z] )$
and replace with $1$2.
RegEx Breakup:
^: Start(\d \.[a-zA-Z\d] ): Match 1 digits then a dot followed by 1 alpha numeric character. Capture this in group #1[-.].*:(-[a-zA-Z] ): Match last-followed by 1 letters and capture in group #2$: End
