Pattern swatches behave unexpectedly
Several mentions on the Illustrator user forum about patterns changing (content or color) when copied/pasted:
https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator/copy-paste-pattern-fill-keeps-pasting-object-with-former-pattern-not-new-pattern/m-p/12140673#M281278
https://community.adobe.com/t5/illustrator/pattern-glitch/m-p/12141847#M281340
and one on uservoice that looks similar:

I am happy to share that we have fixed this bug in our latest release – 25.4.1 which is available worldwide now.
Going forward, our goal is to fix as many top User-Voice bugs as possible and as frequently as possible. Given the nature of the fixes, some of the bugs will take a longer time to fix, but we are on it.
You can update to the latest release using Creative Cloud desktop App: https://helpx.adobe.com/in/creative-cloud/help/creative-cloud-updates.html
Thank you for all the feedback. Keep it coming!

Haven't been able to find a fix so I also had to roll back to the previous version, which worked, but it lost all my preferences.

Hi, I'm having the same issue with 25.3.1 and rolled back to the previous version. I lost all my preferences when I installed the previous version too.

日本語版のv25.3.1では,シンボルにおいても発生します。
英語版でも,パターン名やシンボル名を変更することで回避できるのではないかと思います。 -

I have the same issue when copying objects filled with, pattern the colour of this pattern changes to a random colour way from my palette, it's not a pattern colour way I have saved either. I also uninstalled 25.3.1 and installed previous version. I'm on a Mac

I originally posted the problem in the user forum. I hope you will be able to fix it, because I found out today my colleagues are having the same problem. Which means it is not an isolated incident. It happens on Mac and Windows.

I have this issue since upgrading to 25.3.1
When copying objects filled with the same pattern in different color ways, they would paste with a random colorway. I uninstalled 25.3.1 and installed the previous version and this fixed the problem.
I’m on a Mac but other users reported the same problem running Windows. -

When copy and pasting pasting from one file to another, the pattern is changing to an older colourway of the print. I uninstalled and tried again but the issue was still there. I rolled back an older version (25.2.3) and the issue was resolved.
