I'm trying to figure out if BitLocker is actually working on my computer. I've turned it on, but I want to make sure it's really encrypting my data. How can I verify this?

If BitLocker is indeed enabled, it will be clearly indicated next to the respective drive. The status will typically show as 'On' or display a lock icon, signifying that the drive is protected by encryption.
