What I have tried:

VB

        Dim currentTime As DateTime = DateTime.Now
        Dim BreakTime1 As DateTime = DateTime.ParseExact(cmB1.Text, 
"HH:mm:ss", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)
        Dim BreakTime2 As DateTime = DateTime.ParseExact(cmB2.Text, 
"HH:mm:ss", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture)

         If currentTime >= BreakTime1 And currentTime <= BreakTime2 And Counter >= 10 Then
            Form1.LblBreak.Visible = True
            Form1.lblRun.Visible = False
            Form1.lblMStop.Visible = False
        End If

You can query the Checked property of the checkbox - see CheckBox.Checked Property (System.Windows.Forms) | Microsoft Learn[^]

Either wrap the whole thing in a test e.g.

VB

If Not chkBox.Checked Then
         If currentTime >= BreakTime1 And currentTime <= BreakTime2 And Counter >= 10 Then
            Form1.LblBreak.Visible = True
            Form1.lblRun.Visible = False
            Form1.lblMStop.Visible = False
        End If
      End If

or include it in the original e.g.

VB

If Not chkBox.Checked And currentTime >= BreakTime1 And currentTime <= BreakTime2 And Counter >= 10 Then
            Form1.LblBreak.Visible = True
            Form1.lblRun.Visible = False
            Form1.lblMStop.Visible = False
        End If
