Why can't i open the Gallery on my Samsung J1?

[Android Central Question]

Every time i try to open my gallery on my phone it keeps telling me that there isnt enough storage space in "My Files" to open it but all i have in my files is 6 screenshots/photos. Every time i try to change my phone background/any of my profile pictures. I have half of a gigabyte open and i cant figure out why it wont work, tried the apps settings and everything, any help please?

My Files is an app, not a storage space. Try running Google Photos instead.
