The Stream laptops have very small internal "drives" -- too small to do any kind of built-in Windows reset or reinstall.

The only way to install would be to boot from USB stick and when the format menu comes up, choose the option to reformat the drive -- and that should remove everything from the drive and leave you enough space to do the reinstall.

Also, I doubt the Stream will allow you to install Win11 -- as that has new hardware requirements that most of the older Win10 laptops can not meet, so if you are doing a reinstall, you need Win10.
