How do I search for a typed (C)

How do I search for a typed ©, that is parenthesis-C-parenthesis ?
-
ctrl+f and then alt+0169 (on keypad)

I have fixed this by using notepad standard to replace parenthesis-C-parenthesis with some characters that notepad++ accepts.
I still would like to know how to deal with (), ), and (
that are said to be Perl special characters. -

Whenever you are dealing with looking for the special characters in a regex (regular expression) you need to use a ‘delimiter’ to denote that it’s the literal character you want to search for, not the special meaning.
In Notepad++ we use
\as a delimiter. Thus\(means search for a literal((left curved bracket). If you wanted to search for()together as literals use\(\). There can be some exceptions but for clarity use\for every special character. So even the\is special so literally it is\\.Terry
