These are from a UK-centric perspective.
A. In the UK it will always be carer. Caretaker would be assumed to be someone who looks after property and caregiver would not be used, although the meaning would get through, probably.
B. Client as OG said or possible dependant (although this would be in a non-professional context.)

Care-giver is used in the UK, but usually for someone who is not the primary carer, or for whom care-giving is not the primary job. So for instance a carer might take their client to a location where additional assistance is needed; a porter or assistant would help, and would temporarily become a "care-giver" whilst the client is still in the primary care of their carer.
"Care-giver" is a more generic term. There are plenty of people who do not require a carer (they are mostly independent) but occasionally need help in a specific task. They might be offended by that care-giver being referred to as their "carer" since that implies they are dependent upon that person.

Should it be Caree?
Can it be 'Cared'.
So, the Carer caring the Cared.

This makes sense, but on a longer/frequent sentence I guess it gives a bit of discomfort while speaking out.

Isn't it weird that A is a care-giver AND a caretaker!?
A: Care-giver (gives care)
B: Caretaker (says "thanks you" and takes the care given by A)
Also, why does one have a hyphen while the other doesn't?
None of this makes sense

Yeah, just use Dutch:
Zorgverlener
Zorgbehoevende
Much easier

Underpaid and overpaying
Unless you're a CEO, of course, then you're criminally overpaid.

Precisely, I was about to include this ambiguity in my OP.

care-giver
care-receiver
That's one pair of options anyway.

In a nurse/patient context, I'd say around these parts we'd call them "those on strike" and "those left to fend for themselves". :-/
(just an observation...seems to almost be an annual thing)

Great. "Those on strike" in what context the word "strike" is used here? Just trying to figure out the etymology.
|
|
|
|
|
noun
noun: strike; plural noun: strikes
1.
a refusal to work organized by a body of employees as a form of protest, typically in an attempt to gain a concession or concessions from their employer.

A couple of months back, found W10 to be painfully slow. I did not looked up if it is hardware or OS or some other software. I made the computer dual boot with Linux. Speaker volume is low on ubuntu but everything else is fine. Now I do not face any of these issues.
I still use W10 at work though and apart from BSODs it is OK.

I use Win10 at home and at work, great performance on both, no BSOD etc. Suggesting that Win10 performs badly and has BSODs is a little silly, no?

well from what I read he is only reporting what he actually sees.
calling actual experiences "suggestions" is a little silly just plain wrong no? What color is the sky where you live?

As am I. Same product, different observations so maybe it isn't the product where the issue lies?

sooooo, he is silly for reporting what he sees, and you're not.
well that's fair. Not.
and BTW: he did say "the whole system was lagging badly ... defender is using lots of CPU" - it's you that's pinning it on win10 (in fact later he names his antivirus app suggesting the problem may lie between it and win10, not just win10 on it's own).
different people have different experiences,
why take it so personally to the point of calling people "silly" (it's a gentle word but abuse is abuse) just because people have a different experience than you? that IS silly.

No, he is silly for implying that his personal observation was the norm.
As for the rest of your comments, my post was in response to lw@zi, not the OP, so there is no point responding to them.
