Imagine you have a farm with a solution deployed to it; but, have lost the raw solution package and you need to work on the solution. Or, someone deployed a solution to the farm and you need to inspect it. Here is a script I found that works fantastic for going into the farm and getting all solutions, exporting the wsp’s to a file so that they can then be inspected, re-deployed, or deployed, somewhere else, etc.
