Tortoise SVN Repository Creation: I get the wrong default folder structure

I am on Windows 10. I am using TortoiseSVN Version 1.10. I create a folder "SVNRepository. Right Click on the folder>TortoiseSVN>Create Repository Here. enter image description here so far so good. I click OK and then I get the following default structure instead of the structure trunk/branches/tag

enter image description here

What did I do wrong?

Thank you

This is the actual repository itself, not your working directory. The directory you're looking at is where subversion will store all of your version history, logs, source code, etc in it's own database format (a series of deltas).

If this is a local repository on your computer, you can use the file:// protocol to find the actual directory structure of your repository.

Typically the workflow will be that you develop on the trunk and branches of your repository, using the tags for "snapshots", if you will, of the repository at certain points in the development cycle (such as official releases). So do an svn checkout on file:///C:/Path/to/my/repo/trunk and you can begin there.
