Can't open folder...??? any suggestions?

[Almost IT grad. that is stumped]

This is a Home PC with XP home on it. I set a loose permission on a folder. I
went to properties, Sharing Tab, clicked make this folder private, but i
didnt' set a password because I'm the only admin. on my comp. Then my PC
crashed and I had to restore, now that I've done that, my system won't leave
me access my secure folders. I was wondering how to reset all folders??
