Saving in Audition CC?

I found a question from 2012, but I can't believe this has still not been addressed 6 years later, so I'm asking again. How is it not possible to save a project in Audition? I was working on a project and had to go to bed, and my computer decided to upgrade and reset. Well, when I opened Audition, it erased all of the work I had done on the multitrack. So now I get to do the whole thing over again. How can I prevent this in the future?

Autosave has been a feature for quite a few versions now.

As to "how is it not possible to save a project in Audition?" - my guess is that prior to the autosave implementation the only way to not save a project would be to actually not press the save option and if a project was important I would certainly press the save option prior to going to bed in case there was a power failure or a system reboot but that's just me.

    I understand that there is a save button. My question is how do I actually get it to save? I saved all the files and the multitrack file quite a few times, and yet when I opened the program back up, all my work was lost as if I hadn't done anything. Do you think that was just a glitch, or did I save it incorrectly?

    What version of Audition was this?
    If it was Audition 3 it used a binary ses file and this was susceptible to corruption should there have been a computer 'glitch' or reboot or similar.

    This is why backup apps like SESBackup - Adobe Audition® Session File Backup Utility are handy

    If it was post Audition 3 then this sort of thing was far less likely for a whole heap of reasons
