Windows Experience Index could not be computed - disk assessment fails

Why is autolanding ILS a thing, but not autotakeoffing ITS?

The pilots are only needed to taxi off the runway and park the aircraft. It is called "Autoland" and many of today's aircraft have it. As of today no manufacturer has designed an aircraft with "Auto Takeoff" but I suppose it is not impossible. (Emphasis added.) Which seems odd, given that autolanding with an ILS is a mature technique using mature technology, and autotakeoffing with an ITS (instrument takeoff system) wouldn’t need much more on top of that (just some additional a
