If this Finale version uses the Garritan instruments with the Aria player, you
can edit the instrument definitions.

It's in Garritan\Instruments for Finale\Instruments for Finale bank.xml

Edit in Notepad.

In the list of instruments, add:

    <AriaProgram id="014" name="001. Woodwinds/3. Clarinets/A Clarinet Solo"  
         gui="GUI/Woodwinds.xml"  category="Woodwinds">       
<AriaElement id="0" path="Programs/001. Woodwinds/3. Clarinets/A Clarinet
Solo.sfz"/>               </AriaProgram>

I've also added Clarinet in Eb, Alto Flue Solo, and a few others.
