Check outdated routes in PCB

Hi,
I am new to KiCAd. I must say i really liked it.

So just stumbled upon a satuation. I routed my PCB and now I changed some connections in schematics. Upon updating PCB, the new connections are displayed but it doesn’t remove old routes. Since the pcb is dense so i cannot locate them all. Is there any way to locate routes that are on PCB layout but not in schematics?

PCB Editor / Inspect / Design Rules Checker
This lists a lot of the errors or differences between the PCB and the schematic, but you have to also manually syncrhonize the netlist between the PCB and the schematic. This is not done “automatically” by design, because automating this also has it’s own disadvantages, and doing it manually is just one one [F8] away, and it gives you more control over what KiCad is doing.
