On Mega Man X1, Mega Man X2 and Mega Man X3, the game will use the old "Pass Word" system, where it shows some numbers each time you beat/exit a stage. These numeric sequence are your save.

In this collection, when the game shows you a Pass Word sequence, just press the "S" key on your keyboard (or "Y" button on Xbox controller) to save this numeric sequence. When you exit the game and go play it again, just acess the Pass Word option from the main menu of the games (where it shows Game Start and Options Mode), press "S" again and it will ask you to load your last Pass Word.

Also, fair warning: In X1~X3, the password doesn't save progress through the fortress parts.
So once you beat the 8 bosses and move onto the fortress, you have to finish the rest of the game in one session. It won't save your progress.

It was a holdover from the Classic games.
Especially in the NES days. I don't know if it was their password system not being able to handle it, or they wanted to maximize the challenge.

Thankfully, starting in X4, they finally got rid of that nonsense, and started saving progress all the way.
The Classic games likewise started saving all progress in Powered Up and MM11.

The whole game takes like an hour to finish with all items - half, if you are really good. It's not like you lose days of progress.
