#How to make a key a modifier key?

So my super key recently started registering as 0xf8, and through a xmodmap script, I have made it recognized as the Super_L again, but I can't press it in combination with other keys anymore (I heard that was called a modifier key, but please correct me if I am wrong). If there's any way to make it be able to be pressed in combination with other keys again (Super+W, Super+Shift+E, etc.), please let me know.

Additionally, one of my keys (Launch 3, which is the Armoury crate logo on my laptop) has also just started failing to register; not even running xev can get anything to recognize it being pressed, despite it working just fine before. However, I suspect that isn't related to the Super key problem.

Thanks for any and all help.
