Nvidia sees ESO only if the file is "eso.exe", while the original file is "eso64.exe" ( launcher does not recognize "eso.exe"). The problem has been noticed some time ago but it looks like nobody cares about this. Is it really so hard to patch such a thing?

Why are you even using GeForce Experience? Why not just use the video card drivers?
I recommend you remove the GeForce Experience, you can find game settings tweak guides for just about any game now days. These guides will give you much better control over the graphic settings than the prepackaged settings from GeForce Experience.

1. Not related to the topic
2. Geforce Exp is kin to Nvidia drivers
3. I am not using its "optimized settings"
4. Most performance guides are poor - I have to test settings myself anyway if something is not working properly
Go to your game folder location: ...\ZenimaxOnline\The Elder Scrolls Online\game\client
Look for the "eso64" Application File.
Copy and Paste it in the same location, so you now have two (the original and the copy)
Rename the copy "eso".
Problem solved.
It's sad this issue has been around for a few years now. Back when ESO went 64bit, they changed the name of their main executable. Nvidia never updated their Geforce Experience to look for the new file name, despite players constantly reminding them on their own forums.
With this issue having been around a while, you could have very easily found the solution by searching before asking, either here or on Google.
