STEP 1:
Extract maven to your program file

You have to create a system variable for this in your Environment Variable form.

• Right click on "computer" 
• Click "Properties"
• Click on "Advanced System settings"
• Click on "Environment Variables" under "Advanced" category
• Finally , you are there.

To Create a new system variables. 

• Click "New..."
• Enter M2_HOME as variable name
• Enter the path to maven folder extracted to the program files folder as the variable value
• Click Ok.

Please do the same for the variable name MAVEN_HOME and M2 as seen in the image above.

STEP 3:

       we have to include these variable names to the variable path 's variable value

Please follow the numbering on the image above.

At number 4: include ;%MAVEN_HOME%\bin;\%M2_HOME%\bin;%M2%.

NOTE THAT SOME APPLICATION LOOK OUT FOR M2 INSTEAD OF M2_HOME WHILE OTHERS VICE VERSA.
