Read the book of Revelation. Satan = devil
Rev 20:7 When the thousand years are complete, Satan will be released from his prison,

Rev 20:10 And the devil who had deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur, into which the beast and the false prophet had already been thrown. There they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.

Did the devil exist during the first five days of creation?

Of course, who do you think deceived Eve?
Genesis 3:1-15
"Now the serpent was more crafty than any beast of the field that the LORD God had made. And he said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden?’” / The woman answered the serpent, “We may eat the fruit of the trees of the garden, / but about the fruit of the tree in the middle of the garden, God has said, ‘You must not eat of it or touch it, or you will die.’” ...

Is the devil omnipresent?

Absolutely not.

"Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you."
James 4:7.

Where was the devil during those first five days?

"Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:" I Peter 5:8.

In your opinion was there at that time a plan in the mind of God to destroy the devil?

Certainly, without any doubt.

1 John 3:8;
"The one who practices sin is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the very start. This is why the Son of God was revealed, to destroy the works of the devil."

How was God going to accomplish that plan relative to time?

"And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world." Revelation 13:8.

As to the rest, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might; put on the whole armour of God, for your being able to stand against the wiles of the devil, because we have not the wrestling with blood and flesh, but with the principalities, with the authorities, with the world-rulers of the darkness of this age, with the spiritual things of the evil in the heavenly places;

"...be strong in the Lord, and in the Power of His Might;
put on the whole armour of God...!!!!!!!

 

[David Lamb]

Did the devil exist during the first five days of creation?

We are not told either when the devil was created or when he fell.

Is the devil omnipresent?

We are not told, as far as I know, but unless there is only one sinner sinning at any time, he must be, at least to the extent that he can tempt people all around the world.

Where was the devil during those first five days?

If we don't know when he was created, or when he fell, we certainly cannot say what he was doing during the first five days.

In your opinion was there at that time a plan in the mind of God to destroy the devil?

Yes. God knows all things before they happen.

How was God going to accomplish that plan relative to time?

I don't understand what the question means/ The bible has much to say about the devil's judgment and punishment, but how God will actually bring it to pass. Revelation tells us that the devil will be cast into the lake of fire, but not how God will accomplish that.

As to the rest, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might; put on the whole armour of God, for your being able to stand against the wiles of the devil, because we have not the wrestling with blood and flesh, but with the principalities, with the authorities, with the world-rulers of the darkness of this age, with the spiritual things of the evil in the heavenly places;

Very encouraging, those verses from Ephesians 6 about the heavenly armour.

 

[Van]

Angels were created before God laid the foundation of the earth, Job 38:7, but the one who became Satan does not seem to have fallen until after the earth was created, because Jesus describes the fall like lightning out of heaven. However, that implication is not logically necessitated. Clearly the fall of Satan occurred before Satan appeared to Eve in the garden.

1 John 3:8 NKJV He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.
Heb 2:14 YLT Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through [the] death he might destroy him that had the power of [the] death, that is, the devil;

Was the man, Adam, created for the purpose of the Son of God to be manifested as man because of, the death?

Heb 2:9 YLT and him who was made some little less than messengers we see -- Jesus -- because of the suffering of the death, with glory and honour having been crowned, that by the grace of God for every one he might taste of death.

Is the death the end result of the works of the devil?

Was death a thing, on the earth, before Adam brought it forth into the Kosmos?
