Is there any way to retrieve it?
I have access to the ftp and all..

Easiest solution would be to log in to FTP, and delete the file iv-config/users.php. After deleting this file, you can log in to your admin with admin/admin, and change your password to something you remember.

Of course , I don't know why sometimes easiest solutions are so difficult to find
