Have you ever faced problems trying to delete all the contents of a particular content type in a Drupal website? Drupal is a CMS technology and supports Drupal developers/content writers to add content. I think content writers can face problems while trying to delete content.

Check how to enable or disable maintenance Mode using Drush.
We can install the latest version of drupal9 using the following command.

/** @var \Drupal\file\FileInterface|null $file */
$file = reset($files) ?: NULL;
In some other cases if you don't know the file URI
We can use the below code to get the URI:
