After reinstalling my windows and also Firefox, CTRL+E no longer redirects me to my homepage like it used to. How can I enable this hotkey again?

Ctrl + E selects the search bar - all the way back to Firefox 2.0 versions (and maybe earlier - that's the oldest version I currently have installed)

Alt + Home opens the homepage in the current tab
Ctrl + Home opens the homepage in a new tab

Is it possible that you had an add-on installed which changed that action?

No, it's possible i tweaked it, but I don't remember how

The KeyConfig extension allows keyboard commands to be modified.

There is a KeyConfig support thread here to help with setting it up.

Ctrl+Home only work if you click the toolbar Home button AFAIK and not as a keyboard shortcut as Alt + Home.
