How to ignore breakpoints in DLLs in Visual Studio

I'm using a 3rd party dll with no source code available. It runs perfectly fine, but every time I run my program, an annoying pop-up says "MyProgram.exe has triggered a breakpoint".

If I press continue, my program runs 100% correctly. If I press break, I can see that the breakpoint is occurring in the 3rd party file alp41basic.dll

I have no clue why they put breakpoints in their dll. How can I disable them?

My question is identical to one that went unanswered: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17514072/is-there-a-way-to-make-visual-studio-continue-when-an-exception-occurs-on-a-line

I eventually checked in with the company that distributed the dll, and indeed there are breakpoints in there for reasons that I won't get into. However, if I run the program outside the debugger (even simply open the binary from windows), these popup windows do not occur.

Thank you all for your help!
