<div>
Try this: &quot;(?&lt;Protocol&gt;\w+):\/\/(?&lt;D<wbr />omain&gt;[\w.<wbr />]+\/?)(?&lt;P<wbr />agePath&gt;\S<wbr />*)(?&lt;FileE<wbr />xtension&gt;\<wbr />.[a-zA-z0-<wbr />9]*)&quot;<br />
<br />
FileExtension is a named group so in your match, just remove whatever is in the FileExtension group or, as a better option, just concatenate the Protocol, Domain, and PagePath groups.

<div>
You could also use the URI class to do this. (But not the Path class since that is made for file system paths.)
</div>


<div>
so map the virtual path to a physical path
</div>


<div>
I'm assuming your creating a validation function...I just think the Path class is useful in case you want to also check for file existence before continuing...

Regular Expression to remove filename from page URL

C# is an object-oriented programming language created in conjunction with Microsoft’s .NET framework. Compilation is usually done into the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), which is then JIT-compiled to native code (and cached) during execution in the Common Language Runtime (CLR).
