Intellij warning: Maven wrapper not correct, reverting to embedded

[Chade Fallstar]

I was doing some Spring Boot project with Thymeleaf on Intellij.
Whenever I open any Spring boot project in intellij, it gives me this warning (see attachment).

My M2_HOME directory is set on path & it is not .m2 one (see attachment).

It doesn't cause any issues but I'm still curious why that happens.

Any ideas or leads?

M2_HOME is not supposed to point to the bin directory, but Maven's root folder.

Environment variable	Action
M2_HOME	Set to C:\opt\apache-maven-3.8.5
M2	Set to %M2_HOME%\bin
PATH	Add %M2%

You don't need the M2 variable, I have added %M2%\bin directly to my path.
