Corrupted and Unreadable Drive

Hello, I wanted to talk about my drive that has suddenly stopped working.

My D drive has suddenly stopped and whenever I click it, it says its corrupted and unreadable.

It was working just fine the day before and now it no longer works. I use an external drive, so I tried unplugging and replugging as well as clean my ports but it still does not work.

Is there any way I can fix this? Most of my stuff is on there and I really would hate that all my data is gone.

Thank You

    The file system of your hard drive or partition is damaged. Some possible causes of the RAW partition are malware & virus infection, corrupt files, system crash, abrupt shutdown, removing drive without ejecting, etc. can lead to file system errors, which can turn a healthy drive or partition into a RAW partition.

    You can see at these links some possible troubleshooting using the Windows tools and third-party tools.
