Obviously, you will get access denied when trying to change a password on an

You can rename the local admin account but you cannot
delete it. Start a Command Prompt, then type this command
to see what accounts you still have:

net user

The built-in Administrator account cannot be deleted, accidentally or
otherwise. Did you perhaps rename it?
