Is there something I can do to fix this?
I prefer PingTracer less pretty, but open source instead of a "try for free" thing.

Requested Time Out. Packet loss
I'm going to recommend using PingTracer, PingPlotter, or even good old UOTrace on the gaming servers you have experienced trouble on and see if the ping spike on the final server corresponds with a spike on one of the intermediate hops.

What software/tools should every sysadmin have on their desktop?
Oof, that is some steep pricing. PingTracer is open source and gets the job done for me.

major issues at work after switch to fortinet. about to lose my job.
You could try this https://github.com/bp2008/pingtracer. It pings and monitors each router in between your connection and destination so you get a better idea of where the packet loss is. Also use this to try and ping 8.8.8.8 and the FortiGate Appliance providing the VPN service i.e. the "server" address in FortiClient. Hope this helps.

Microsoft Store in Perpetual Update (I've tried everything Google has had to say but to no avail)
What I'm thinking now is you may just want to solve this with the nuclear option like this guy did - https://old.reddit.com/r/Windows10/comments/f4tw3k/cannot_open_any_microsoft_store_apps_windows/ A pain in the ass, but most 3rd-party applications can export settings, and a program like Patch My PC or winstall can reinstall software quickly. https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/1950-clean-install-windows-10-a.html

You can replicate that experience with winstall. It gives you the script file when you finish selecting the desired packages, so you can install all the desired apps on any Windows machines on one go without installing additional software.

When reinstalling Windows, there are a few things you can always count on... this is one of them
you have that usb installer for windows you just made. there's still some room on it. make a new folder there and stuff your initial batch of application installers in it, or at least something like ninite or patchmypc or a script made from winstall.app
