Description

The installation page http://maven.apache.org/start/install.html state that you should run the following:

"For Windows:
%MAVEN_HOME%\bin\install_repo.bat %HOME%\.maven\repository"

This is probably not required but if it is run should point to %HOMEPATH% instead. The end result of not changing this is a %HOME% directory in the directory you were in when you run install_repo.bat.

This is not enough. HOMEPATH does not contain a drive, so the installation should create its own HOME (if it is not set yet) using:
HOME=%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%
