Unsolved Gamesharing question

[808s]

Let's say I have about 5 games downloaded from different accounts

If I deactivate my PS4 to let someone else login to my account to download a game that I'm considering buying for the both of us, Will I lose the 5 games?

Okay, when it comes to game sharing on the PS4 it can get a little tricky. I game share my one friend and everything is working well. This is how I have the game share set up between me and my friend.

• I deactivated my account which I bought all the games on.
  
• Then my friend deactivated his account as primary.
  
• Now, I activated my FRIENDS account as PRIMARY.
  
• Then he activated MINE as PRIMARY.

All the games I bought I can play on my account and all the games he bought I can play. Now this is where things get a little tricky. I have another account I play on but I could only play my friends games on that account since his is activated as primary. I cannot play any of mine games on any other account , only the one I bought all the games on.
