I'm recovering some old 2009 files. My instrument names seem to be formatted in a font that Finale is not recognizing (Missing font (11)) so I can't technically swap it out. Any suggestions?

I don't know what you mean by you can't technically swap it out. Why not?
As far as I know, Finale never dropped old fonts from version to version--it just added new ones. If you used a custom font, perhaps you can install that one.

I assume you're using the font utilities under "Data Check" in the Document Menu. Also assuming that "Missing font (11)" doesn't appear in the font menu. If not, give it a try.

It seems to have been some sort of lag in the program or something. Now that I've had the documents shut down for a while, and just reopened them, the programs letting me switch the Missing Font. But thanks, folks.
