Changing a User's Username with DEM Profiles

Not finding any info about this but what are best practices when changing a user's AD username and how it relates to their current DEM profile?

 

For example; say the user has their name as SmithJ in AD and their DEM profile is created under that same \\server\DEMProfiles\SmithJ username. If that user were to get their name changed to WilliamsJ DEM would create a new profile under the updated username if I am correct. Meaning the new profile would be \\server\DEMProfiles\WilliamsJ which would then be empty.

So to make sure user can access their profile would best practice be to update the name of the existing folder? Allow DEM to create a new folder and import the contents of the previous profile to the new one? Third thing?

 

Thank you
