Method 2

Follow these steps if you would rather make your own portable FileZilla.

1. Download FileZilla Client zip archive. The latest stable version is FileZilla_3.3.1_win32.zip.
2. Extract contents to a folder, e.g., FileZilla. The folder structure would be:

   FileZilla
   ├─docs
   ├─locales
   └─resources
   

3. Copy FileZilla/docs/fzdefaults.xml.example to FileZilla folder and rename it to fzdefaults.xml.
4. Edit fzdefaults.xml and specify Config Location setting. This means settings is the subfolder that all configuration files saved within.

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
   <FileZilla3>
       <Settings>
         <Setting name="Config Location">settings/</Setting>
       </Settings>
   </FileZilla3>
   

5. Start FileZilla, configuration files such as filezilla.xml will be auto created within settings folder.

   FileZilla
   ├─docs
   ├─locales
   ├─resources
   └─settings
   

6. That’s all, your FileZilla is portable now.

Here is an example, you can directly download it.
