FileZillaPortable\Data\settings\filezilla.xml
The "Language Code" setting kept replacing the entry inside the settings list before the close with:
<Setting name="Language Code" />
And kept adding duplicate entries at the end of the file after the and closing paramaters every time I went in and saved any settings.
</LastServer>
</Settings>
</FileZilla3>
<Setting name="Language Code" />
<Setting name="Language Code" />
<Setting name="Language Code" />
I tried to manually edit the setting in the main area to:
<Setting name="Language Code"> </Setting>
and it kept resetting it back to:
<Setting name="Language Code" />
Since there are no entries in the Language list in portable, I went into regular FileZilla, selected English and copied over the setting line from there into the portable filezilla.xml:
<Setting name="Language Code">en</Setting>
So far, just checking today, this manual edit has stopped this behavior.
I haven't tried 3.7.1.1 yet.
FileZilla 3.7.1 Portable
Windows 7 Enterprise SP1 64-bit

This is a very old post but I had the problem too with the recent version :
Version 3.14.0 for Windows, Multilingual
6MB download / 14-22MB installed
The solution provided above didn't succeed for me but the following will :
Open FilezillaPortable.ini and in :
App --> AppInfo --> Launcher -->
and replace the following block :
——————————————————
[FileWrite1]Type=ConfigWrite
File=%PAL:DataDir%\settings\filezilla.xml
Entry=' <Setting name="Language Code">'
Value=%PAL:LanguageCustom%</Setting>
[FileWrite2]
——————————————————
By this :
——————————————————
[FileWrite1]Type=ConfigWrite
File=%PAL:DataDir%\settings\filezilla.xml
Entry=' <Setting name="Language Code">'
Value=%PAL:LanguageCustom%
TrimRight=</Setting>
[FileWrite2]
——————————————————
This was not yet being tracked, due to the [Bug] tag having been missed in the subject. I have fixed that, so we can take care of the change.
I've got a note to fix this in the next FileZilla release now. Anyone tested this yet? If not, I'll have to pre-release.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
I'll check this in the morning, possibly tonight if I get a chance.
[EDIT] I just got a chance to test this. While the provided fix would work, It's not the most appropriate fix. I'll write up proper xml-handling code and attach the fix here, or send you a Rev 2, whichever you prefer.
This is fixed in FileZilla Portable 3.14.1

After installing 3.14.1 this morning I had this error, so I think the above solution does not work.
I now tried this one and it works for me. After changing FileZilla loads without errors. Can you try this (FileZillaPortable.ini) :
[FileWrite1]
Type=ConfigWrite
File=%PAL:DataDir%\settings\filezilla.xml
Entry=' <Setting name="Language Code">'
Value='%PAL:LanguageCustom%</Setting>'
As both versions cause issues, I've removed language switching in Rev 2. It may be restored in a later version.
