title: How do you reference a capture group with regex find and replace in Visual Studio 2012, 2013, 2015, and VS Code
body: <p>I realize there are a ton of questions about this, but none that I found specifically referenced which VS version they referred to. With that important information lacking, I still was unable to successfully use the answers I found. The most common was</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Surround with {}, display capture with \1, \2, \n</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>However, that seems to be the old method of doing regex find and replace in Visual Studio, and it does not work in VS 2012. </p>
