In this applescript, you can select an app in your Finder window which will create a new Textedit file into the folder that is open in your front Finder window. It will use Terminal to copy a Textedit file from a specific directory that you specify to your front Finder window. In this script, I have the Textedit file in a folder called dont_delete in my home folder.

When you run this script for the first time need to set up the Textedit file and need to change "username" to your home folder name. Save this script as an app in Script Editor and drag the app to a shortcut slot in the Finder window.
