• Unreadable External Hard Drive Recovery

Yesterday, I plugged in my external hard drive and tried to click on it. A message popped up saying it was unreadable, so I unplugged it and plugged it back in. Then I got the message asking if I want to format it. I even tried inserting it into different computers, tried going to disk management and checked the settings, nothing worked and now I don’t know what to do... I have some important stuff in my external hard drive. How do I get the data that is on the drive back? Is it gone? Please help!
