Why does "sudo apt update" cause a series of "403 Forbidden" errors?

I have a Ubuntu 22.04 virtual machine using VMware on a Windows 10 Enterprise computer.

Part of setting things up requires I use the command:

sudo apt update

or

sudo apt-get update --fix-missing

both commands cause the same error messages. They consist of

403 Forbidden [IP: 91.189.91.39 80]

Either I need to do something to establish a network connection, I assume, or I need to find a way to do what I need through downloads and file shares with the host computer. Either way, I need help.

Since I do not have the ability to share files or the clipboard memory with the Virtual Machine, I had to do a screen shot. But, fortunately, I ran that through a pretty good OCR image to text converter so I can share this:

Please help. Is there some sort of configuration I need to do in order to establish network connectivity? I did a search online and so far the information regarding a 403 error is in regard to a web server files not having the proper file permissions for a browser. What changes do I need to make on my end?
