How to get Wash Via Mif to work in FM11

It appears that Wash Via Mif does not work in FrameMaker 11 at the book level. It creates a TMB file and apparently stops. It leaves the TMB file open. I've even had FrameMaker crash trying to wash via mif for a book. Very frustrating. What's the workaround?

I have a book with conditional text that crashes on a regular basis. Adobe told me to Wash Via Mif to resolve; however, that's not working. Any other ideas?

    Did you install the BookMIFWash script correctly? See this thread for details - http://forums.adobe.com/message/4735001#4735001

    I copied

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\AdobeFrameMaker11\Samples\ScriptsAndUtilities\BookMIFWash to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\AdobeFrameMaker11\fminit and restarted FrameMaker 11. I opened my book, but do not see a "Book Utilities" menu. Can you send a screenshot of the menu?
