Alternatives

The cutscene that plays when you first enter Deku Tree allows the wrong warp to work. If you have to savewarp inside Deku Tree for any reason, you need to go into Link's house and pause the game there to allow the warp to work even after saveawarping. The games title screen is considered a cutscene and watching it and then trying to warp will softlock your game.

If you have trouble getting the red rupee in Zora's River, you can collect more rupees while getting the sword, and after savewarping get any rupees you are lacking for the shield.
