Plymouth's 12-match wait for a League One win ended as they beat Wimbledon 1-0 at Home Park thanks to Freddie Ladapo's 75th minute header.
The target man headed home after Graham Carey latched on to Ruben Lameiras' short corner to send over an inch perfect cross from the right, with the win lifting Argyle off the foot of the table ahead of their trip to basement side Oxford next Saturday.
Argyle had threatened five minutes earlier when central defender Ryan Edwards headed just over from Carey's corner from the left.
Carey nearly made it 2-0 with a thumping shot minutes after the goal but keeper Joe McDonnell saved well down low at his post.
Argyle's on-loan Arsenal keeper Matt Macey made a save on the line to deny Jake Jervis from point blank range after 62 minutes.
Former Argyle forward Jervis seemed certain to score when he side-footed skipper Deji Oshilaja's cross towards goal at the far post but six foot seven Macey got down to turn the ball away to safety.
Joe Pigott sent a shot just wide of goal after good work from Jervis as the second half started with Wimbledon on the front foot but the visitors could not find a way back into the game.
