How to release folders permission?

Dear all,

I forgot to reset all the permission to everyone before I delete my windows
server 2003.
The files in the harddisk cannot be access now, and also cannot to change
the security settings.
Can I get back all the files in my harddisk?
Thanks a lot.

Take ownership of them (right-click/properties/security/advanced/Owner).
Then reset the permissions.
