Apps have moved to Volumes/Data folder

For some reason most of my apps have been moved out of the regular Applications folder and into the Volumes/Data/Applications folder. However, the "Volumes" is greyed out and when I search for an app it can't be found. Any ideas on what is going on here?

Thanks

Is it in /Volumes/Data or /System/Volumes/Data?

If the latter, that is correct. Not sure why you can't find apps.

If the former, then the transfer was incomplete. You should be able to drag the apps from that folder into the true Applications folder--Go > Applications.
