The features above can be found in editors only. But conceptually, TuneText is Customizer rather than editor.
Its focus is on helping readers to adapt, personalize existent content by making small improvements.
Each Windows user has individual profile. Behind the scene, TuneText saves the changes on your computer in a very compact format as Microsoft's Userdata Behaviour.
While your Highlights and Bookmarks are saved automatically, for saving Edits you need to press F9 (or Ctrl-F9, or Alt-F9)**. You can also save your changes as backup file, reload them, or submit to remote server.

* - TuneText processes highlight selections on the level of words, rather than letters! On clicking, your mouse must be over some textual content, and selection consists of words between points of pressing and releasing your mouse.
** - Shortcuts may vary for some configurations of IE.
*** - Pressing Esc closes corresponding TuneText dialog or window.
