Totally this^ All the CAD programs really need an auto-save feature, especially when the assembly starts getting really big. It's very easy to forget to save even if you set the reminder every few minutes. I learned very quickly on this one. I just ended up creating a macro on my mouse to ctrl+s every couple minutes. At least the save window pops up so I can decide what to save or not. You could do something similar with autohotkey. Saved me a few times already
