Not updated with Build(ACTIONS/Build)

Question

When I click ACTIONS/Build to build, the executable module(merged.hex) is not created. Now that zephyr/zephyr.elf has been created, the process will finish. 
 [Environ] nRF Connect SDK v3.2.1 nRF9151 (Custom board) VSCode (1.109.4) 
 The build will succeed in Pristine Build. Which settings should I change? 
 Best regards. Kato.

Hi, 
 1) Firstly, its supposed to work with normal build not just with pristine build. Are you using the "Generate and Build" option? Sysbuild has to be enabled. Make sure you are selecting the right application or sample in VS Code because which one you select can also affect the build and merge file. 
 2) Since zephyr.hex is an output file of the Zephyr Project RTOS, you can find it in : build/<your_application_name>/zephyr directory. 
 3) The programmer app can use both .hex (including zephyr.hex or merged.hex) and .zip files. It then flashes application firmware. 
 If you want more information on how to program the output build files, take a look at the following documentation: Programming an application
