Maven 错误 | 错误：无法找到或加载主 class org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.launcher.Launcher

Question

I am unable to install/use Maven and getting the below error.

Error: Could not find or load main class org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.launcher.Launcher

Steps on installation:

1. Downloaded Binary zip archive (3.8.5) and put it at root C:
2. Set Java Home and Maven home in system variables as "JAVA_HOME" and "MAVEN_HOME"
3. Set Path variable in system variables as "%JAVA_HOME%\bin" and "C:\apache-maven-3.8.5\bin" respectively

Now if I use "maven -v" command on the command line it throws the above-mentioned class error.

Also, if I use the same command in the bin directory of maven it gives results.

PS I have gone through many threads here but does not resolve my problem.

Answer 1

I put maven directory in Program files folder and updated path and it started working!
