"Miscellaneous Files" hidden data

I have a Note 4 and am having a problem with data supposedly contained in Miscellaneous files. When I look at the listing for what's in there I don't see any file over 10 mg...yet I'm receiving notices of not enough storage in the phone to install an app...AND on the main page of My Files I see 17 GB as what the devices says is in there! I've transferred virtually all of my space-hog files to my mini-sd (vids and pictures mostly) but *still* there's something in that folder I can't see. Any help?
