Windows 10: USB File System is RAW

Dear Microsof Community please help me with my problem. My USB OTG suddenly got an error saying "you need to format the disk in drive F: before you can use it" I tried using EaseUs, but other than that I did not try anymore 3rd party application, since majority of them has to be paid in order to recover and fixed the problem that is not guaranteed to fix. I also tried the CMD command chkdsk and it says that "Chkdsk is Not Available for Raw Drives" and further note I don't think there are any virus in my USB since I only use it for Docs file, Video, and I only plugged it on my pc which does not have any virus and I don't want to reformat the USB, because my left important data in the USB so PLEASE HELP ME FIXING THIS PROBLEM. THANKS IN ADVANCE!

USB hard disks in Vista detected as RAW

raw means there is no file system on the device..does your usb HDD require an 3rd party driver?

Dont mention RAW system file to me, last time I saw that I had to RMA my Sammie F1, I think it may well be fubarred.
