I had backed up all my apps and software to a hard disk while switching from windows to ubuntu. I'm a beginner and I have no idea how to transfer the backup to the new operating system and reinstall all my applications from the backup drive.

Windows and linux are different operating systems. While you can restore your data from the backup and use it on Ubuntu (which is one of many linux distributions), you can not restore your applications on Ubuntu. You will have to find equivalent applications to use.
