Windows Central Question

My phone used to have about 7 GB used but recently I went in settings>phone storage and now it shows 13.15 GB is used which leaves 1.52 GB free. I haven't downloaded anything that big in size recently. When I also go into the break down in phone and add it all up it adds up to just under 7 GB. How do I get my 6 GB of storage back?

Phone: Samsung Ativ S SGH-T899M
OS: 8.0.10521.155
Firmware: 2212.13.11.2
