I think your file attachement failed. Go to the main menu, select “Submit bug report” and upload the resulting ZIP file.

Note that the read_kf keyword is not part of the base MFiX, it is an extra keyword added to a few of the tutorials (conveyor3d, rotating drum, mixer3d). It is implemented via UDFs: usrnlst.inc and usr_init_namelist.f which allow you to add additional keywords. Take a look at the conveyor3d tutorial for more info.
