IntelliJ IDEA: “Indexed Maven Repositories” list - how to REMOVE a remote maven repository in this list?

intellij-idea, maven-2, repository

Solution

All my repositories got removed from this list, probably because I've moved the project to another directory on my device. My solution was to delete the `jarRepositories.xml` file, which is located inside the `.idea` folder.

Problem

I really wanted this to be a comment to the answer posted in the thread IntelliJ IDEA: "Indexed Maven Repositories" list - how to add remote maven repository in this list? but my reputation does not allow for it. So please excuse this being posted as a new Question. Is there any way to remove a repository from the "Indexed Maven Repositories" list? I moved projects and still see my old repositories in there, some of which have actually been taken offline. I have tried re-importing my settings.xml file, restarting IntelliJ multiple times(invalidating the cache too), but cannot get those repositories to go away from this list.
