i need to know when an updated file has been opened.
is it possible to watch the "OPEN" and "ACCESS" event with an adaptation

need to work on windows, does pywin32 can ?
inotify is only for linux
dazuko can catch on linux
what can work on windows to see the file open and file access event ?
We're using ReadDirectoryChangesW to catch changes; I have no idea
whether that would give the info you want.
'Fraid not; I assume that that is the "Tim Golden's script"
the OP is referring to, but that only handles *updates* no
opens/reads. As Tim R points out, there's really no way to
do this in Windows without dropping down to the device-driver
kind of level.
