The default files have no effect on already-existing files -- they
only affect new documents.

Using the Mass Edit tool, select the range of measures and hit Clear.
This will make sure that the measures are truly empty. Then use the
Measure tool to create the MM rest.
Aaron has good advice, but this is the kind of thing that hits me
regularly when importing older files into a newer version of Finale.
Sometimes I have to resort to copying the contents into a new, blank
file.
Another thing that I see a lot of is some measures simply will NOT
space correctly, no matter what settings I use, until I clear the
contents and re-enter the music.
Maybe I just have a lot of bad luck, but I get really twitchy whenever
I have to edit older files.
