If this is windows, you somehow logged in a second time as a guest.
Use the shutdown entry on the start button to log out of the guest account.
The computer should then start up again in the administrator account.

Reboot computer ,hitting f8 until you get the option to go into safe ,go into safe mode ,choose administrator and go to control panel and create a new user with admin rights ,as for why it happened and if you actually lost all you data im not sure!
