The hex files you merge cannot contain data in the same address range. I suggest you try to merge a SoftDevice with a example application that you have compiled from the SDK (without any modification). In that case you should be confident that there are no conflicts.

Then you probably have a typo in the command. The error message "One of the files to merge cannot be found" literally means that one of the source files are not where you specified that they are.

I am copy the all hex and exe file in one folder (D:Merge). So its not a duplicate path.

The file names <sd.hex> <app.hex> in my answer was just examples, you must replace it with the path to the hex files you want to merge.

You can use mergehex for this purpose, which is part of nRF5x-Command-Line-Tools. In order to merge the SoftDevice and your application you would use something like this:

mergehex.exe -m <sd.hex> <app.hex> -o comb.hex
