did you manage to find solution?

Here, too, is the same problem. I noticed that when I do merge the MAX automatically saves the file that I am working with and adds a backup extension. What should it be?

Hi 

I think i sort out my problem

I found that some motion cleaner/ cleaner script out there dont complete clean or see all the nodes in the file

and the autodesk's one clean much better and now my file is working fine now

Prune scene script solved the problem for me

Just download it from here

https://github.com/3DGROUND/Prune-Scene/blob/master/PruneScene.mzp?raw=true

It will give you a yellow icon in the 3ds max main tool bar, click 1,2,3, clean everything (or uncheck some unwanted things like missing material and memory)  then click on 'start' now your file is ready to merge and use quickly.

Thanks to my friend 'Muayed' who teach me this method.

Prune Scene script above also worked for me. Long save times. Long merge times (even for simple geo). It was cutting into my productivity big time. I was so thankful that I'm going to PayPal the developer.

Henryyu12, Would you mind posting a current link to the tool you originally referenced (linked) in your 3-22-2018 post?  The link you provided then is just taking me to the splash page for Autodesk Area.

Thanks much!

t=trackviewnodes;n=t[#Anim_Layer_Control_Manager];deleteTrackViewController t n.controller;gc()

run this script and press right side numeric "Enter"

Save on desktop and run once in while for every scene
You can also download "Prune Scene" for completely clean, Virus, and ALC removal
