Different vimrc by filetype on Windows 10

As the title says: can I use different _vimrcs for different programming languages or filetypes? I have to use a lot of different programming languages for lots of different subjects, and for each filetype I want to toggle the original _vimrc and the individual filetype-specific _vimrc. I think all of the filetypes I use are supported by gVim : I mostly use C, C++, Java (Kotlin), and LaTeX.
I'd prefer something I can code without installing plugins, but if I DO need plugins, I'd be very grateful for a suggestion or two.

What would be the purpose of the individual _vimrc files, though? Do you want to specify separate commands by language?

Yes, as well as autocomplete, colorschemes (maybe not this one, but it would be handy to have different colorschemes for different languages) and other details.

Might be worth trying the advice given here (question was about indentation): stackoverflow.com/a/159066/4765406
