    Well, if it was me I would just change the e mail address to hers, and give her the password. Then you could just make a new account?

    Just register like a new member then activate the account.  You are giving this other person the founder account.  Or just switch accounts.

    You can not delete the founder account.  You are giving this person the founder account.  You also need to change the information in the forum's utilities.

    Register just like a new member.
    Activate the account:  AP > Users & Groups > Users > Inactive List
    If you want to keep your posts/topics, you will have to manually post them again with the new account.
    Log in with the founder account and change the log in information so the other member can log in with the founder account.
    The other member then can log in and change the information.
    Go Here and Change the Information also:  https://www.forumotion.com/utils
