I've had that problem a few times. The solution was to restart the 'Bonjour' service in Windows Task Manager.

Close iTunes, then CTRL+ALT+DEL and open Task Manager.

Go the Services tab at the top and scroll down to Bonjour Service. Right click it and click Restart. After a few seconds, the Status should say Running. You can then open iTunes again and the Airplay button should be back.


Hope this works for you.
