Notepad++ Regex Force Upper/Lower Case Broken?

Question

Searching: (WORD) Replacing: \L\1 Got: \LWORD

Searching: (WORD) Replacing: \L\1\E Got: \LWORD\E

Searching: (WORD) Replacing: \L$1 Got: \L$1

I'm lost.

The question is, what am I doing wrong? The radio button is selected, and the commands just don't produce the results I expect.

Sorry, I thought it was pretty clear that I was trying and failing to get good results from the search/replace regex terms. I've been reading for an hour to find other options for this result, but none of them worked at all. I think my notepad++ is broken because I think, from reading other articles here, these search replace strings should be resulting in "word", but they don't. — nick, Jul 12 '14 at 20:03

Never forget to check the regular expression radio button.
