Question find an specific word inside parentheses


Hi. I have a file that i need to find and replace some words that are only used inside parentheses. the problem is the words that i want to replace are used in every part of the text but i only need to replace the ones that are inside parentheses.

for example:
sample.JPG

in this scenario, i need to change you that is used in parentheses and not in other places.

I would be grateful if you could help me out.

I would simply use the Replace dialog without anything fancy, looking for "you."
Use the Find Next and the Replace (not Replace All) buttons.
