find . -type f -name "*.html" -exec sed -i -E 's/\w+\s+</</g' {} +

find . -type f -name "*.html" -exec sed -i -E 's/\w+\s+</</g' {} +

if I do a simple

find . -type f -name "*.html" -exec sed -i -E 's/a//g' {} +

find . -type f -name "*.html" -exec sed -i -E 's/a//g' {} +

all a gets replaced successfully but the first, the first one does NOT work and I dunno why i cannot understand, I tried to test on regex101 and it matches --- disclaimer I got that command from an ai chat bot, idk sed, i just know regex myself ---
