I locked myself out with folder permissions

[Guest]

h
I had a few folders not available for the other users on my computer, by denying them access under Sharing and Security. Now I've got my computer presented in the Internet so I made a few more restrictions, again, under Sharing and Security. Unfortunately, I denied myself access to one folder, even though my username has administrator rights. is there a way to unlock it
thanks in advanc
