Don't ever try to delete the files, and never search any app and don't root your phone, try to understand you will lost all the things. As easy as this is app data and software data of phone. Don't be panic to delete that data.

That's combination of so many stuffs like temp files/left over data of uninstalled apps/secure folder data,photos,videos

So,you can try few steps like deleting temp files(from my files)
Clear data of apps(huge in size)
Perform wipe cache partition
Delete recycle bin(my files)
