I want to delete all the categories, subcategories, and products... Should i go to Admin side->Categories/Products to remove them manually? Or Shall i go to database to delete them? Which is the best way to do it? Many thanks in advance.

Database is the quickest. But take your pick. :-"

Thanks, what do you mean "take my pick"? And could you tell me how to change database? Is this dangerous?

the fastest way is go into Admin>Catalog> and delete those categories and when you do that it will delete the subcategories inside the categories

Before you do any changes on your site you need to do BACKUP! BACKUP!
