1. A hotspot connection method, comprising:
establishing, by a terminal device, a communication connection to an electronic device;
displaying, by the terminal device, a first query pop-up window in response to the connection to the electronic device succeeding, wherein the first query pop-up window is used to query a user whether to allow to open a hotspot to the electronic device;
closing, by the terminal device, the first query pop-up window, and displaying a second query pop-up window in response to receiving an instruction that allows to open the hotspot to the electronic device, wherein the second query pop-up window is used to query the user whether to disable an automatic program, and wherein the automatic program is a program that is automatically executed by the electronic device in a network connected state;
obtaining, by the terminal device, a program indication set submitted by the user by using the second query pop-up window, wherein a program indication in the program indication set is used to indicate, to the electronic device, a target program that is specified by the user to be disabled; and
sending, by the terminal device, a processing instruction to the electronic device, wherein the processing instruction is used to indicate the electronic device to connect to the hotspot after the electronic device disables all target programs indicated by the program indication set;
wherein before the displaying, by the terminal device, the second query pop-up window, the method further comprises:
sending, by the terminal device, first indication information to the electronic device, wherein the first indication information is used to indicate the electronic device to feed back a program list, and wherein the program list comprises program identifiers of all automatic programs that each are in an enabled state currently in the electronic device;
receiving, by the terminal device, the program list from the electronic device; and
generating, by the terminal device, the second query pop-up window based on the program list, wherein the second query pop-up window is used to enable the user to select no target program or select at least one target program from the program list, so that the program indication set obtained by the terminal device is an empty set or is a non-empty subset of the program list;
wherein the second query pop-up window displays query information, an acknowledgment control, and a cancel control; and
wherein the query information is used to query the user whether to disable all automatic programs that each are in an enabled state currently in the electronic device, the acknowledgment control is configured to enable the program indication set obtained by the terminal device to be a universal set of a program list when being triggered, and the cancel control is configured to enable the program indication set obtained by the terminal device to be the empty set when being triggered.
