Abstract
In a data processing method, an electronic device detects that a first file and a second file are duplicate files, with a first index node of the first file pointing to file data of the first file, and a second index node of the second file pointing to file data of the second file. The electronic device generates a target index node and configures the target index node to point to the file data of the first file. The electronic device associates the first index node with the target index node, and separately associates the second index node with the target index node. The electronic device then deletes the file data of the second file.
