    If this does happen for you, please open your Pathfinder panel’s options and change the Precision value it has. Lowering the values improves results, especially on very long curved segments, but also increases the overall time a complex pathfinder operation takes.

    Please comment below if this advice helps — the team can use this feedback to reconsider the default value.

    I have now altered the precision setting in pathfinder options to 0.001pt and it's working correctly now. The default isn't low enough!

    This is also happening for me, when I use pathfinder to subtract a shape from another, the remaining path is different slightly. I'm using v2023 27.0.0

    In the attached screenshot, you can see the original (blue shape) and the new shape (brown) with the bottom removed after using pathfinder
