AutoSave is either in the title bar at the top left corner of the Word window, or is on the left of the Quick Access Toolbar, as shown below.

This is undoubtedly the cause of the change in behaviour but, as Charles Kenyon indicated, if you were using Word correctly it wouldn't be an issue for you. Documents should always be created from a template (*.dotx/*.dotm), not an existing document (*.docx/*.docm).
