Failed to Read Artifact Descriptor for Org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-jar-plugin:jar:2.4 Intellij

Last week I my laptop was updated to Windows 10. Since that time intelliJ is throwing Maven related errors which I take been unable to resolve. All of my Maven plugins are highlighted in red with an error for: "Failed to read antiquity descriptor for (dependency).". This is happening with every unmarried plugin and dependency. I should likewise mention this is a cloned project that works for anybody else so the problem is not with the pom.

Here is a screenshot of my Maven settings:

I've tried many options to resolve this including: 1. Invalidate Caches / Restart 2. Re import Project iii. Re import Maven Dependencies. iv. Deleting the intelliJ .iml and .thought folder. v. Doing a Maven make clean install (volition touch on this in a moment). half-dozen. Doing a git pull and re importing. vii. Installing an external Maven (newest version), adding it to the surround variables and intelliJ.

Below is the error output from console when I attempt to run:
