Hello, I am using illustrator version 27.1.1 64 bit and when using the direct selection tool, side rounded points that allow me to round shape corners not showing ( I tried CTRL+H and SHIFT+CTRL+B options but did not help me.

Attached files,

picture No.1 is the problem, picture No.2 is the round box I am talking about.

Thanks in Advance.

Not entirely clear what you're asking, but if you want to resize objects using the Selection tool (the white arrow is 'Direct Selection' black is just 'Selection'), try enabling bounding boxes (View > Show Bounding Box).

Can you see the View option 'Show Corner Widget'?

What version of Illustrator are you using?
