So the question is obvious now here's what I did: I've tried without openning TOR browser to go to Edit->Settings, then I went to Connection->Generic Proxy and I've selected SOCKS5, then I typed host for 127.0.0.1 and port for 9050 and here's what I've got:

Status: Connecting to zx4h3vvf2g2x6rci.onion through SOCKS5 proxy
Status: Connecting to 127.0.0.1:9050...
Status: Connection attempt failed with "ECONNREFUSED - Connection refused by server".
Error: Could not connect to server

So I've tried with TOR browser on and same result, I've checked everything and everything is correct. Oh and this is what I get when I try proxy port 9150 with TOR browser on:

Status: Connecting to zx4h3vvf2g2x6rci.onion through SOCKS5 proxy
Status: Connecting to 127.0.0.1:9150...
Status: Connection with proxy established, performing handshake...
Status: Connection established, waiting for welcome message...
Status: Insecure server, it does not support FTP over TLS.
Status: Logged in
Status: Retrieving directory listing...
Status: Connecting to 127.0.0.1:9150...
Status: Connection with proxy established, performing handshake...
Error: Proxy request failed. Reply from proxy: General SOCKS server failure Error: Proxy handshake failed: ECONNABORTED - Connection aborted
Response: 150 Opening BINARY mode data connection.
Response: 550-Data channel timed out.
Response: Win32 error: The network connection was aborted by the local system.
Response: Error details: Data channel timed out.
Response: 550 End
Error: Failed to retrieve directory listing

With the TOR browser off I get the same result as before with ECONNREFUSED after the second stage of connecting.
So here's what I ask, how to setup filezilla to use with TOR? What am I doing wrong? What software do I need? etc. etc.

So please help me if you can, I've been googling with no luck so I took my last resort is to ask for help :/

Sorry if I can't put direct tags in, I couldn't find any with FTP or filezilla and to create new tags I must have high reputation so sorry for that. I couldn't find any question regarding my problem so I posted a new thread instead. If it was answered please show me the link to the solution and I'll post back to tell you if it helped.

A passive FTP setting must be enforced in case of dot-onion FTP servers, because it will use a single TCP pipe opened from your side for both Control and Data streams. Your error log states that data pipe is broken. Active FTP over Tor is possible, but it requires a non-trivial setup on both sides. Use a passive one and be safe :)
