I do have a logo and some graphical shapes on the TOP and BOTTOM layers, they used to be there without DRC error, but with the new AD release, it starts issuing Un-Routed error! Any way to tell AD that these items are not nets only graphics and logos, no need to route them?

Interesting...
Pad - no problem
Text - no problem
Traces within footprint - no problem
Fill, polygons, regions, traces and arc (not in a footprint) - un-routed error.

Change the rule for un-routed nets to:
Custom query: (Net <> 'No Net')

I think if you set the text object properties as inverse, as it were, you get a solid copper rectangle with text as cutouts inside, and that seemed to work the last time I had to put text on copper. Good luck 🤞

@qdrives, thank you very much for your help, I did it, and works!
What does that query mean? Does it ask AD to ignore any object which does not have a connected net?

Yes exactly.
