Answer 1

Oh. Simplest soltion here : Check the following screen to check if you have the good settings, to go here just go to window->preference and type maven in the type filter

Answer 2

Have you tried to restart Eclipse once you modify the M2_REPO variable? I think that JVM just reads all environment variables and then just keeps them in memory.

Are you sure you have set it up properly -> once you set it try to print it in the new command window with the following command: echo %M2_REPO%
