Hi.
You could try to use the Take Ownership command. This is assuming you are administrator. Otherwise the person who created the folder must logon, and re-inser the rights.
Once you have taken ownership, you can re-insert the rights.

The quickest way would be to restore it from the backup. You do have back up I hope.
