forgot my password in other account

Pinging around

There are three accounts on opening Vista . One is guest , one adminstrator
and one other. I have forgotten the password to the other one. Is there any
way to delete this account and start anew?

depending on the version you have:
1. right click on "Computer" icon or thought the start button, go to manage
then to Local Users and Groups. You can't delete the guest account or
built-in administrator account but you can disable them

To delete an account, right click on the account and delete..

Most of these tasks can also be performed from the control panel --> user
accounts

You can simply log on with your administrator account, go to Control
Panel/User Accounts and change or delete the password for that 'other'
account.

Why not simply use the administrative account to reset the "other"
account's password?
