"Ultra enabled" matches the regular expression (Ultra HD)|(enabled), since the regex is looking for the word "enabled" anywhere in the string, and "Ultra enabled" does contain "enabled"...
If you want to match only the exact phrase "Ultra HD" or the exact phrase "enabled" (all by themselves, in both cases), the regex needs to be ^((Ultra HD)|(enabled))$
(The ^ and $ indicate to match the beginning and end of a string)
If you want to match something differently, please upload an example screenshot as @Dimlos mentions.

Sorry @FrameXX but in your example "Ultra enabled" matches too...
As I'm not a Regex specialist I tried your suggestion because I love learning but unfortunately it seems that it's not the right way to achieve what Seh wants to.

If you are looking for a sentence containing both "Ultra HD" and "enabled" you need a regex searching for both keywords not only one or another. Something like (Ultra HD.+enabled|enabled.+Ultra HD) if enabled keyword can be in front or behind Ultra HD, or just (Ultra HD.+enabled) if enabled can only be behind.

You are right. I edited my pattern.
It's worth investigating ChatGPT as that should be good at generating regex values when given a good description.

That's what I did. It's just important to mention that you need the regex to be compatible with Java 8.
