How do I know that the default of my interactive shell is now zsh?

How do I test if default interactive shell is now zsh and is properly working?

I was working on Adobe PhotoShop Elements 2021 when I got this error message:

"The default interactive shell is now zsh

Last login: Mon Dec 27 01:46:30 on console

The default interactive shell is now zsh.

To update your account to use zsh, please run

`chsh -s /bin/zsh`.

I ran the "zsh" in the Terminal but I don't know where the run "`chsh -s /bin/zsh`

Until now, I still can't open the Adobe PhotoShop Elements 2021 in my MacBook Pro, 15-inch 2019.

Thank you.

That is the command line to run, copy and paste:

chsh -s /bin/zsh

If in doubt you can see your current shell, copy and paste:

 echo $SHELL

When I clicked, Shell in my Terminal, here’s the attached dropped down after I copy-and-pasted “chsh
 -s /bin/zsh” in the Command Line. I hope this fixes the error message.
Anyway, what I did was I uninstalled and reinstalled my Adobe PhotoShop Elements 2021 which is now normally working.
And the original error appears to have gone away.
Thank you.
