Regex: Match a specific character then a number

I am trying to match a specific character with a number followed by a full stop, i.e. V1. or V2.

I decided to start with just trying to match the character and number but it doesnt seem to be working, after numerous Google searches I believe this to be correct but obviously it isnt. TIA

var regex = new Regex("\b[V][0-9]\b")
var replaced = regex.Replace(path, string.Empty);

The below regex would match V plus the ollowing one or more numbers only if it's followed by a dot.

new Regex(@"\bV\d+\.")

Explanation:

  • \b Word boundary which matches between a word character and a non-word character.
  • V Matches a literal V
  • \d+ Matches one or more digits. Use only \d if the following number is a single digit number.
  • \. Matches a literal dot.
