Disable EFS on Windows 2012 shared Network folder

Hi,

we have a Windows Server 2012 which is sharing a folder for all our domain users. We use EFS for some clients. If a client copies a file to the shared network folder, it should be automatically decrypted. But instead, the files are being copied with the encyrption, so that nobody else can open it. Clients should still be able to encrypt their files. 

We've already disabled EFS on the Windows Server, but the files keep their encryption, after copying.

Is there a way to disable EFS on a shared network folder?

Best regards,

Matthias
