this question has answer here:

• regex match text after given character excluding character itself 1 answer

in somexstring it's easy find after , including 'x'.

what need find after, excluding 'x'.

... match string in it.

try using lookbehind assertion.

(?<=x)\w+ 

if regex engine doesn't support lookbehind assertions, can work around using capturing groups.

x(\w+) 

in above regex, string accessed referencing \1.

note: uses \w capture word characters. if literally mean want capture everything use dot, ., metacharacter instead...

(?<=x).+$
