using the file:// protocol is not recommended for other purposes then
local testing.

setting up svnserve quiet easy:

either run it from the command line as required

        svnserve -d --root <path-to-repo>

and close the command prompt when finished

or create a windows service (all in one line)

        sc create svnserve
          binpath= "\"<path-to-TSVN-bin-folder>\svnserve.exe\"
            --service --root \"<path-to-repo>\""
              DisplayName="svnserve" depend= Tcpip

to run svnserve in the background automatically
