If you haven't yet deleted the localhost root account, you can log onto
the mysql client with:
mysql> mysql -uroot -p
then press enter again when it prompts you for a password.
You should now be able to manage all your account info.

[PHP-DB] setting root password
I have tried the step-by-step methods listed on mysql.com for setting a
root
password for my local server but I keep getting the message "you must have
privileges to update tables in the mysql database to be able to change
passwords for others". What could I be doing incorrectly?
