You can use the below Regex to remove all special characters

var YourString="#Check !@test"
var AfterRemovingSpecialCharacters= YourString.replace(/[`~!@#$%^&*()_|+\-=?;:'",.<>\{\}\[\]\\\/]/gi, '');
console.log(AfterRemovingSpecialCharacters);
//output: Check test

OR

You can also try the simpler version

var Output2= YourString.replace(/[^a-zA-Z ]/g,'');
console.log(Output2);
//output: Check test
