You could contact tech support, but I'm sure they will respond that 2008 is no longer supported.
You may need to upgrade. There have been a lot of changes over the past 7 years and 6 versions.

Any additional advice on running Finale 2008 on Windows 10? I need to finish up a long-delayed project, and don't want to have to learn a new Finale version in order to do so (having enough problems learning to use Windows 10 on a new computer!)
Thanks, Noel

Welcome to the forum!
Just an idea:
Have you tried running Finale 2008 in Compatibility Mode?

Thanks! Where can I find out about "compatability mode"? Is this something I do through Windows or through Finale?

That's a Windows function. Check Google; windows 10 compatibility mode.
I'm on a Mac, so I can't help more than that!
