You need access to the file system. In the /core/includes/config.php file there are a number of lines where userids are specified to have special permissions including being a super administrator, among others. You need to make sure the old userid is removed AND your userid is listed as a super administrator at a minimum, likely you also want some of the other permissions.
Once that is done you can bring the old account up in Admin CP -> Users -> Search for User, and simply change their usergroup and save changes.Last edited by BirdOPrey5; Fri 17 Aug '18, 3:50am.

by zkengleI have two accounts for myself - my main admin account, and my personal account. Somehow I locked my personal account out of being a super admin. How can I fix this? Tried removing my personal account...
