Did you download Filezilla from official website?
https://filezilla-project.org/download.php?platform=win64
You are getting false warning(I guess).

I just download it today and working fine without any problem. I have just installed wordpress in this car blog https://bestobd2scanners.com/. All files uploaded perfectly and working fine too.
