I know how to save the slideshow as a movie on a Mac in PowerPoint, but
I can't find how to do it on a PC. I've searched everywhere. Is that
saving ability only on the PowerPoint for the Mac Microsoft Office?
Please help! Thank you

You're right, it is a Mac-only feature probably due to the tight integration
of Quicktime into the Mac OS X system architecture.

Mark's correct. Some alternative options for the PC version of PowerPoint
(including Camtasia Studio) are mentioned here:
