That was immensely helpful, siigna! My data folder was simply not visible the way it is in the picture. Only the volumes I'd created with the installled HDDs were listed. I did a full factory reset and it all showed up. Now the data folder, which was previously missing, is accessible via SMB, but I still can't access \\nas\volume\.apps\ or \\nas\apps through Windows, even if I specify the full path. That's not a big deal, though, because I was able to use the URL you provided earlier to access the apps folder through the http interface.
I consider the issue resolved. Thanks again for your efforts, siigna and vandermerwe!
Update: I can access the apps folder through SMB using the path \\nas\data\.apps\
Update 2: Just to clarify, I still can't see the apps folder in the http admin interface either, unless I specify the full path using the URL siigna provided in an earlier reply, using just the https://<NAS_address>/browse.html#path=%2F<volume_name>%2F.apps portion of it. The volume name is "data" by default.
