+===== Get snapshot count for each VM =====
+To count the number of snapshots/checkpoints for each VM in a Hyper-V host, you can use PowerShell. Here’s a refined version of your script that will do just that:
+<code powershell>
+$vms = Get-VM
+foreach ($vm in $vms) {
+    $snapshotCount = (Get-VMSnapshot -VMName $vm.Name).Count
+    Write-Output "$($vm.Name): $snapshotCount"
+}
+</code>
+Explanation:
+  * Get-VM retrieves all VMs on the host.
+  * For each VM, ''Get-VMSnapshot'' fetches the snapshots, and ''.Count'' gives the number of snapshots.
+  * Finally, it outputs the VM name along with its snapshot count.
