"Drupal already installed" error, how to empty an existing database in Drupal CMS?

After the set up of Drupal CMS I got the error message „Drupal already installed to start over, you must empty your existing database and copy default.settings.php over settings.php." I can't get to the login prompt again.

How do I empty the existing database in Drupal CMS?

How can I achieve this application form?

I need a way for users to be able to open an application form which is a .docx file, fill it in and click submit to send it.

I'm thinking Webform is the way to go for the submit functionality, but how do I embed a .docx which they can fill out to the form?

My client insists that the application form has to be in the docx format rather than some sort of webform on the page.

Field to summarize referenced entity titles.

Awhile back I had a content type for radio audio shows that had a field collection for Segments to describe sections of the radio show and I used computed field to get the titles from the referenced field collection to list a Segment Summary of the radio show segments.

Nuisance of junk requests... How to shield from?

If I understand the Drupal code, it has defined routing. So all the required paths are coded using these routing.yaml files. However if a request comes in with some junk path (example https://www.mysite.com/arbitrary/req), it still has to hit the index.php and hit the database (if I understand correctly). This creates a problem if some requester is calling my site with hundreds of request with this junk requirement, my database connections are all choked.
