Darlene,

If it helps any, this is how I perform the same testing scenario as what you're trying to do:

1. I use my default web browser (Firefox) and which I have already logged into GIO with my admin email account, and since it remembers it, I don't have to log-in again, so anytime I click some GIO link in some email, it goes to this browser. (this is important to remember as you'll see later on)
2. I do whatever admin work needs to be done to whatever group.
3. Then I want to test how the subscription process works (or any other GIO functionality for that matter, where I want to see how things look/work from a regular/different user's POV), I create a test email account somewhere, and from that email, I send the subscribe request.
4. I then open a different browser, Chrome in my case, the test browser, which I will use to test the links the subscriber will get, as you can have a different email address logged into GIO from different browsers and can use them simultaneously without interfering with each other, at least with Firefox and Chrome, I have not tested it with Edge, but it seems per your experience Edge should work the same.
5. This is an important step, while I try to remember to always log off GIO from the test browser when I'm done testing, in order to ensure that I didn't forget logging off from a previous testing session, I first go to on the test browser, and if I get the login screen then great, if not, I log off; otherwise my testing wouldn't work!
6. I then proceed to look at the GIO-generated emails on the test account and check/do whatever I'm testing at the time.
7. Here's the trick though, I do not click on any URL link on any GIO subscription (or otherwise) test email message I get on the testing email address, because this will open that link in my default browser, not on my test browser, hence I would see (in my default browser) that same link I clicked on from my admin's account perspective, not from the test user's perspective on the test browser. So I instead copy the link text from the email, paste it into Notepad first (which will paste the link as plain text, strip any underlying URL code, re-copy it from there, then go to the test browser and paste it there.? I will now see on the test browser the same screen the test user would see if they clicked on that link on their computer. (I suspect this part is what you're not doing quite right)
8. I can then proceed and do whatever from-the-subscriber's-perspective testing I want to do, on the test browser exclusively.? If I need to go and change something on the group and retest, I do that from the default browser where I'm logged in as admin, but everything else related to what the user/subscriber will see/get, is done in the test browser.
9. When finished testing, I log off from the test browser, and close it, and I'm done.

Never had a problem this way.

Cheers,
Christos
