Confusing description
Nice addition! But I think the description is a bit confusing.
First of all, what's the difference between drives and volumes?
Secondly, how can you encrypt already encrypted items?
MIght want to take look
You my wish to view the documentation for the app, as PortableApps only makes portable the app but the original app documentation is best place to read and review and find out information.

drive is whole harddrive.
drive is whole harddrive. volume is an old word meaning folder. basically a volume refers to content rather than the physical drive it is on
Fixed up
The language has been adjusted to hopefully make it more understandable.
Thanks, but why repeating the word?
I suggest just:
...allowing you to both encrypt full physical drives and/or logical volumes (i.e. folders).
The "i.e. folders" assumes the previous comments were correct.
Incorrect
A volume is a file you create that can then be mounted as a drive letter on a given computer and used as any other drive. Hence the name logical volume. It's a volume that exists logically but it is not a physical drive itself (like your hard drive or flash drive is). A volume is not a folder.
