How to disable CDC for a table manually?

Question

I dropped a table before disabling CDC for that. Now when I recreated the table and tried enabling CDC it says that capture instance already exists. I can use a different Capture Instance name but need to know if there is anyway to drop the associated capture instance manually.

When I delete a table through SSMS GUI it drops CDC tables too. But this time I dropped the table using code and it didn't disable or remove CDC. Hence the trouble. Ms documentation talks about a hot fix if Change Table are removed by mistake. But I have removed the base table. Any clues on how to remove this capture instance for the dropped table?

Answer 1

Well I figured out a way. I removed all the records related to that table from all CDC system tables and tried recreating the capture instance with same name. It worked!
