I just tried running 2010 with El Capitan. It launched OK and I was able to 
create a new default document and enter notes via MIDI, but when I opened an 
older file (created with 2008) and tried to play it back, I got the message 
“Unhandled exception caught”, followed by Finale crashing. I tried launching a 
second time: the same crash happened immediately after I had created a new 
score with the Setup Wizard.

I wouldn’t bother trying to install it.
