Another option:

1. Select Wall in 3D.

2. Use the "Show Selection" context menu command to display only that Wall in 3D.

3. Activate Door/Window Tool and press CTRL+A (or use "Edit\Select All Doors/Windows" menu command, depending on if it is a Door or Window - or both).

You have some openings above the wall

openings or windows are set in higher level.

While you select the wall you will find the black dots appear then while pressing shift make a selection window around those dots then deselect the wall you will discover what those dots are referring to ( I guess windows ) then delete or adjust.
