I think you missed out an important line. This works for me:

!define MUI_FINISHPAGE_RUN
!define MUI_FINISHPAGE_RUN_FUNCTION "MyFunction"

It is easy to change the standard messages used by MUI. All you have to do is specify your custom message BEFORE you use the MUI_LANGUAGE macro.

Here is how I modified the text shown next to the checkbox on the Finish page:

!insertmacro MUI_LANGUAGEFILE_STRING MUI_TEXT_FINISH_RUN "Run my special function"

!insertmacro MUI_LANGUAGE "English"

Glad I was able help out.

When I showed how to alter a standard MUI message, I forgot to mention how you can find out which text string you have to define before you use the MUI_LANGUAGE macro. The MUI messages are defined in the "NSIS\Contrib\Modern UI\Language files" folder (the English messages are in the file "English.nsh" in that folder).

For example, the entry for the standard message for the "Run" checkbox on the Finish page is:

!insertmacro MUI_LANGUAGEFILE_STRING MUI_TEXT_FINISH_RUN "&Run ${MUI_PRODUCT}"

The '&' before 'Run' defines 'R' as the accelerator key for this checkbox. You can use '&' when you define your own version of the message (eg "My &Program" will use 'P' as the accelerator key).
