I will also don't delete the file -- Incorrect
I am also don't delete the file -- Incorrect

May be you wanted to say something like, I will also not delete the file.

But I think the line below sounds more natural.

I will not delete the file either.

Let's see what native speakers would say.

Daemon99,
Yes, you are correct. I wanted to say "I will also not delete the file".

In which context I can say:
"I don't delete the file".

Thanks for your reply.

You use simple present when you want to say that you have/don't have the habit of doing something.

For eg:

I don't work on Unix. (I always use Windows)
I don't save files to the desktop. (I always save them in my personal folder, c:suresh)
