Step-by-step explanation:

To change to the Direct Selection tool while using the Pen tool, you need to press Ctrl/Command.

The Direct Selection tool allows you to select individual anchor points or path segments of a vector shape or path. It is useful when you want to make precise adjustments to your design.
