test 2test and select the checkbox for "regular expressions"\s indicating a space following test IE test\sRStudio will find no matches. The same holds true if R-like escaping \\ is used before the s.

This doesn't appear to be a regression so I changed the milestone to 1.4. Can reproduce on Windows in 1.2 and 1.3.
I've confirmed that the repro provided does not work with the version of grep we use with windows so to fix this issue we'll need to bundle a different version of grep which is being tracked here in #3572.
I'm closing this issue in favor of that one.
Looks like we opted to fix this in 1.5 instead -- moving out of 1.4 and tracking in https://github.com/rstudio/rstudio/issues/3572.
