A: They have different meanings and are used at different times.

“Never mind” means, “you can ignore this.”

So if I say, “Have you seen my keys? I can not find them!” I might then say, “Never mind. I found them.”

“Not mind” means you are not bothered by something.

I might say, “ I do not mind when the train is late, because I find it very restful to sit in the train station.

“Don’t mind” could be used either way depending on if it a command or not.

If you are commanding someone to “Don’t mind” then you are telling them to ignore something. “Don’t mind Frank, he can be a little rude.” (This usage is more common in the American south.)

A more common usage of “don’t mind” is the ‘not bothered’ meaning. And if it is used as a statement then you know it has this meaning. “I don’t mind walking on hot rocks. It actually feels good on my feet.” Or “she doesn’t mind the rain. It reminds her of Paris.”
