For me  I was receiving this error when connecting to the new IP Address I had configured FileZilla to bind to and saved the configuration  After trying all of the other answers unsuccessfully  I decided to connect to the old IP Address to see what came up  lo and behold it responded   I restarted the FileZilla Windows Service and it immediately came back listening on the correct IP  Pretty elementary  but it cost me some time today as a noob to FZ   Hopefully this helps someone out in the same predicament
