Regular Expression, remove everything after last forward slash

Question

I\'m trying to use a regular expression within PowerShell to remove everything from the last slash in this string;

 NorthWind.ac.uk/Users/Current/IT/Surname,         


        

Answer 1

Here's another solution that doesn't require regular expressions:

Take a substring of your string starting at the beginning of the string and ending before the index of the last slash in your string:

PS> $indexoflastslash = ("NorthWind.ac.uk/Users/Current/IT/Surname, FirstName").lastindexof('/')
PS> "NorthWind.ac.uk/Users/Current/IT/Surname, FirstName".substring(0,$indexoflastslash)
