May 23, 2017 at 4:53 comment added Martin Ender @LeakyNun regex engines have an optimisation that they stop repeating a group if it was empty n times where n is the minimum of the quantifier you're using (in your case 1; if the minimum was 0, it would be tried once anyway). If you change the + to {2,}, it should work. This optimisation prevents infinite loops but it's also the only thing that keeps .NET regex from being Turing-complete on its own.
