The following script will search all VMs for snapshots, total them (even if there are multiple snapshots per VM) and present the results. If the script returns nothing to screen, then no snapshots were found on any VM.
Ensure you install PowerCLI and run the script from there. You can also omit the -user and -password switches if you use SSO and your logged in account has access to vCenter.
