Why can't Ubuntu mount my exfat pen drive?

Question

I format the pen drive in Windows as exfat, but Ubuntu can't mount it. Which format do I have to use for Ubuntu?

You should install the optional exfat filesystem on Ubuntu so that it can recognize it on your pen drive

sudo apt-get install exfat-fuse exfat-utils

Afterwards, just mount it normally.
