Tom Cleverley’s new-look Plymouth soared out of the League One relegation zone with an impressive 4-2 home win over last season’s play-off semi-finalists Stockport.
Argyle took the lead from a 24th-minute corner from the left taken by Matty Sorinola and swept into his own goal by County striker Kyle Wootton.
Plymouth doubled their lead from a thumping Caleb Watts strike from the angle of the box into the far corner from another Sorinola corner from the right on 39 minutes.
County skipper Oliver Norwood scored from a hotly-disputed first-half added-time penalty.
Bradley Ibrahim restored Argyle’s two-goal lead in the 48th minute with a low shot from distance after being teed up by fellow central midfielder Malachi Boateng.
From yet another Sorinola corner, Ibrahim’s shot went inches wide of the post on 64 minutes and he then forced a good save from Corey Addai on 68 minutes.
Swiss striker Lorent Tolaj latched on to a through ball from keeper Luca Ashby-Hammond to run on and slot home Argyle’s fourth goal in the 75th minute.
County got a late consolation when Wootton scored with a superb strike into the corner from just inside the box in the fifth minute of stoppage time.
