I purchased a Windows 10 laptop & want to transfer my Finale Print Music project files from a Windows 7 PC.
Any help is appreciated

The .musx Finale files are just data files. You can drag the folders containing them onto a USB thumb-drive to copy them from one computer and then copy them from the thumb-drive onto your new computer.
Finale files are saved by default in a folder (in documents?) called Finale Files. You can change this in the Finale Preferences to save them elsewhere. In PrintMusic the default folder may have a different name. If you have yourself changed where such files are saved, then you need to drag those files and/or folders onto the thumb-drive.
Very important (though you didn't ask). Be sure to open PrintMusic as Administrator to de-authorize your copy of PrintMusic on your old machine so you can authorize it on your new machine. It's a lot easier than doing it in retrospect via the Finale web site.
