I installed WordPress twice on my web host using their control panel.

I want to delete the database associated with the first installation of WordPress. Is there a username and password that I can use to log into phpmyadmin and do so?

Do you have a control panel for example cPanel?

Yes I have a control panel but I am not sure if it is called the cpanel.

I was given instructions to log into phpmyadmin from the control panel to access the database.

But what username and password do I use?

This is in the file wp-config.php (for the db in use)

To remove an unwanted db, consult with host (it varies by host)
