Answer 1

To delete a database even if it's running, you can use this batch file

@echo off

set /p dbName= "Enter your database name to drop: " 

echo Setting to single-user mode
sqlcmd -Q "ALTER DATABASE [%dbName%] SET  SINGLE_USER WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE"

echo Dropping...
sqlcmd -Q "drop database %dbName%"

echo Completed.
