They removed Check Accidentals in 2014 because the paradigm for accidentals has been revamped, thus eliminating the need for that feature.

I cannot seem to find any documentation on it other than the cryptic help at the bottom. It is an interesting alternate way to enter notes, though probably it gets little use. I think I will squirrel it away so I can come back and explore it more.

Good catch!!!
Had not seen this until your post. Well, since the bag has now opened and the cat has emerged it would be nice if MM would comment on this.

We recently published an updated version of the User Manual that unintentionally included the information described in this thread.
As previously announced, our goal for Finale development going forward is to increase quality and improve user experience. Finale 2014.5, the next incremental update to Finale 2014, will continue our work toward modernizing Finale and improving its performance. We haven't set a release date for the update, but already our development team has fixed numerous defects and are making use of the data collection we implemented in 2014d. I've rolled back the online user manual to remove the information. While the release isn't quite ready yet, rest assured that we’re well on our way to making Finale better than ever.
Happy musicking,
While I appreciate MM's "data mining" abilities with the "d" update I believe I also remember that it was stated that features would not be changed or removed just on the results of the data collection alone? Has this now been ignored?

I liked certain other plugins that since I have F2012c I transferred dropped (discontinued folder) plugins to F2014. Like my "Composer’s Assistant Plug-ins" folder.
The feeling I get is due diligence to any statement like the caveat with data collection decisions will fall away.
