Today I had a similar issue in Notepad++ while trying to remove the first character of every line in a text file with regex.
Using ^(.), it would mark the first character occurrences in the search panel, but would not actually replace them ('\1').
Then I
found two alternative ways to do it: one is by using ^.?(.*) instead, and the other is surprisingly simple - Alt-selecting vertically the text "column" and deleting it.
