Issue
I got this error
Error: M2_HOME is set to an invalid directory.
M2_HOME = "C:/Users/joanet/.m2/repository"
Please set the M2_HOME variable in your environment to match the
location of the Maven installation
but C:/Users/joanet/.m2/repository is a valid directory !
Solution
Yes, your folder is valid, but this is not the folder you want to point to.
I think it should point actually where the error messages says to you, to your maven installation folder (something like this)
C:\development\maven\apache-maven-3.1.0
You are currently pointing to your local repository, something which is usually configured in the settings.xml of maven (in the conf folder of the previous url route).
