About exFAT data recovery
Any type of data storage device needs formatting with a proper file system so that the operating system can read & write data on it. The most commonly used file system for HDD, SSD, USB flash drive, pen drive, or memory card nowadays, is NTFS, FAT32, and exFAT. Mac computer is uniquely using HFS+, APFS, or exFAT.
exFAT is for use on multiple operating systems than the other two forms, it's compatible with Windows OS and macOS/Mac OS X. Besides, it has greater flexibility than NTFS and FAT32, which makes more and more drives using exFAT.

"I have an external drive that was formatted as exFAT. After a long term use, it does not show up on my system now when I plug it into the computer. When I run Disk Utility, the drive appears on my system but a message pops up with "error: Disk Utility can't repair this disk. Backup as many of your files as possible, reformat the disk, and restore your backup files. Is it the only thing that I can do now? Please tell me how do I recover data from exFAT hard drive? Is it dead or not?
Calm down. The drive seems not dead yet. Disk Utility was unable to fix the drive. However, when your hard drive appears on the computer again, it seems to be still intact with all the important data. Now the problem is that you can't open the device.
Is it possible to regain the data inside? We both clearly know that something is wrong with the exFAT drive. You should have it fixed with the help of professionals after retrieving the data.
