upload tools.php from the do_not_upload folder and follow the instructions that come up when you navigate to it in your browser :)

you should be able to put yourself back as admin there

if that doesn't work you can set youself back to admin by editing your usergroup in phpmyadmin

I found my user in user table but I dont know what field to change, it give for fields just numbers and not names like "main admin" coopa.

Ok I changed it just by changing usergroup from 4 to 6 and loged in fine but now Im not listed in the "Administrator Permissions" are, only the secondary assigned admin is listed there. How do I make sure im still the main admin?

I don't understand why you just havn't followed this instruction:

upload tools.php from the do_not_upload folder and follow the instructions that come up when you navigate to it in your browser
There is an option to "[Reset Admin Access]" in it. Use that, it saves time and effort and stops causing anymore problems like if you edit/change the wrong thing.
